Also got tired of a couple things that I believe should be an option when ordering a jeep.

1. Interior of hardtop being white

So after a week or so it’s now black using 5 cans of dupli-color bed armor.

Also painted some trim pieces to match while I was in the painting mood.

And to get all caught up for now is the done right led kit for the back glass of the hardtop. This kit adds so much light to the back and rear area behind the jeep.

Up next is a set of ARB diff covers and a set of Agm coilover sliders to be installed soon

I've never seen the done right led kit before. It really throws a lot of light, think I'll add it to the list.

It’s really nice but I need to wire it to a constant power source. Damm dome lights don’t stay on all the time. [emoji2]

Yeah I could see that being a pita. I think I remember there being an adjustable timeout for how long they stay on. I think I saw it as an option in the evic, might help a little. If I remembered correctly that is lol

How or why do the sliders help?

Had them on for half a day now. Prior to install I would always hear the coils popping, rubbing on the king sliders either by getting coughs up somehow or from trapped debris. Now they are quiet, I haven’t heard them once yet. Just my opinion of course. There also longer which seams to help also.

So a few days ago I finally received all the parts for my nitrogen shock fill kit. Picked one up from eBay and sourced a local bottle.

Upon lifting each corner to its full extension, I found all shocks were at different pressures from evo mfg. ranges were from 120 to 140. Trying all at 175 now.

First impression is that they seam to soak up some of the road bumps better. We’ll see once I get it off the beaten path again.

I'm liking the build so far.. good job. I guess I'll pick up some of those AGM coilovers sliders now. I've heard good things about them. Getting my coilover's soon, getting them powder coated Red when I get them.

Hope the powder coat doesn't screw up your springs

Do you think so? I've seen multiple vids of people doing them including King Shocks themselves. I did call the local place here doing the powder coating and they too say they've done quite a few springs for other off-roader's. I'm all ears if you think it's not a good idea and why that may be.

If they know what they're doing, there's no problem, but baking the powder coat can weaken the springs if the temp is too high.
