Ade's JK Build (2 Door)

As the upgrades are starting to mount up, thought it was time to start documenting and posting the changes to my 2008 Rubicon 2 Door. The wife says she doesn't want it to turn into a KOH rig but I plan to see how far I can push that envelope.

So this is how she was purchased. With Warn bumpers front and rear, Old Man Emu 3" Lift, 1" Body Lift, Adjustable Upper Control Arms (make unknown and haven't bothered to find out yet), Reel Drive Shafts and a warn XD9000i winch, oh and some sweet KC spot on the front;)

Some bright spark at work says "You've got a Jeep now, lets get a Rubicon Trip planned". Me thinks, "a 2 door on 35's, going to be dragging that undercarriage over some none forgiving stuff on that trip"

Ok time to start on the underside. (Not going to become a Canadian living on gummy bears).

Made a few calls, and decided to go with some LoD sliders, a M.O.R.E. Steering and Sway Bar Skid Plate, and a full set of Rockhard 4x4 skids with a Clayton HD crossmember.

And in with the new, the install was quite straight forward, but blood heavy.

First of all welcome to WAL!
Love to see a thread that has lots and lots of pics, your rig is looking awesome so far.
Wicked jealous of the 2 tone PSC flares they look sik.
Keep up the great work! :rock::rock::rock::rock::rock::rock:
 
Where did you get your paint?

Was it a exact color code match or just a similar one that you used?
 
I love the build threads, yours is coming around very nice, great color match, I'm def watching this :thumb:
 
Bad ass looking 2 door! Those flares are awesome, really great job on them.

Aside from the axle shaft how did it handle the Rubicon? Anything else you wish you had on the trail?
