Test fit the evo front bumper skid plate and now just need to paint .

Got the rockstars installed . Was a PITA . Brackets were all folded over, went through 4 M18 batteries with sawzall and grinder but looks good now that it’s done .

Greasing that joint seems like it’ll be a huge problem moving forward ..

Good job Dan. I found an angle grinder beneficial with the rockstar install.

As far as greasing the rear LCAs I found a 90 degree adapter that works to grease mine. Got mine at oreilly's not Amazon. Screenshot_20200413-085348_Amazon%20Shopping.jpg

That was my thought. I need to get a couple more 30 grit flap wheels. I have plenty of cut off wheels. I may get them installed incase next 6 months...haha.

I used that adapter for awhile, but I started using a needle point to grease them and it works a lot better.

Thanks. Figuring out installs 1 mod at a time . The rockstar skid install was pretty involved for me . Watching Eddie do it on the write up .. I was not prepared for the issues that came up with the stock brackets both axle and frame side being so jacked up .

Haven’t built up the courage to do the transmission filter and fluid even though everything is just sitting here .

Coming up on 3 years in July . 34k miles since I got the Jeep
