Hitch looks good. Surprised you haven't given in yet and purchased the red ARB diff cover especially with all the wheelin' you do.

You buy your pod lights yet?!

Found out the mystical clicking nose in my rear. I jacked up there rear and spun the rear wheel to hear a rattle inside the hub, take my hub caps off and found rust shavings rattling around back there haha. Explains why I could only hear it outside the Jeep at slow speeds and when I was outside the vehicle.

It gets really gross in there. I've taken my center caps off numerous times and it always looks horrible in there.

Currently plastidipping the rear bumper grip.
I've done this in the past, but it started peeling and started to look like crap.
The naked eye might not see the difference with it plastidipped, but it definitely protects that plastic from fading.
I'll post pictures when it's done.

Does the liberty come with a 'Trail Rated' badge on the passenger side? I was washing the Jeep for the first time in a long time, and noticed that I was missing the passenger side emblem. I decided to order a new set of them, but in black instead of gray. After I ordered them, I looked at a picture of the Jeep just after I bought it, and apparently I never had one on the passenger side... lol.

I also ordered a set of d-ring shackles for my ATH recovery system.

No they only came with them on the driver's side. It drives my OCD nuts.

That's why I had to order a new set...

I don't even want to talk about the appearance of my new vent shades because I'm an idiot and screwed up the install on the driver's side rear window... Once I have another $45 to waste, I'll order another set to make it right. Until then, I cringe at the sight of it.

haha... I have a US flag on both sides of my Jeep on the stationary part of the rear door windows. The passenger side is ever so slightly crooked.... drives me nuts!

I bed linered that and the plastic piece on the floor inside the door, it definitely gives it more of a truck feel haha.

Thanks silverkk! I have ATH to thank for all the advice he gave me during the build haha.

I like to think so haha. Makes my tires that much bigger now that I can see them so well!

I'm fairly certain my KK has an oil leak. There are spots everywhere that I park. I checked the oil a couple weekends ago and the level was fine. I can't tell if there was oil stuck in the skid plate from the dealership changing it or what. I'll have to check it again today to see how the level is now.

Time to fill it up again, too. I think I got 318 miles out of this tank and the gas light just came on.

Chances are good it's just residual from when the dealership did it.

A few minutes with a flashlight and you might have your answer. Also check to make sure it's not coming from your power steering.
Not bad mileage. Probably a little less than 19 m.p.g. Did you switch back to stock size tires?
