The walmart lights are acceptable for now reasonable light output. I do plan on getting some decent HIDs when I have the cash. I will take some night pictures tonight.

Got a nice surprise dropped off by FedEx!
(actually I knew about it as my wife couldn't stand keeping her surprise gift

)
Hoping to get it installed at the local shop by next week.

-
Also, been a busy day, replaced battery with an AGM.
Lost a small 1/4" ratchet wrench in the process, it fell under the front headlight and ended up taking apart the grille
and d/s headlight :banghead:

-
(The above is being done in anticipation for an upcoming winch bumper

)

Also installed Rugged ridge Neoprene seat vest covers, the top part was easy but the bottom part was a pain to install!
(they're actually black, but they look grey I the pic)

-

-
And I also replaced my silver Drake shift knob with black, I just like the black one better

@knightenforcer , I really really like those seat covers especially the back. I wish the covered all of the seat, I don't know why the company would expose such small sections. Where did you get them and how much? Thanks!

Knight, didn't you just lift? How high are you going now?

Silverkk, how'd that happen? Blow out or did you catch something?

Bmxer524 it was a blow out on garden state park way as I was going to school and I was in the fast lane

nFodzy,
They are Neoprene seat vest protectors for the JK made by Rugged ridge.
The top portion was easy to slide in, but I had a hard time trying to make
the straps work for the bottom part, took awhile but I figured it out
(there are wires underneath and the rails gets in the way)
Looks, great and feels like it would do it's job (beach runs)

Bmxer,
Got the "adjust a struts" in anticipation for a winch bumper from Morgan
to compensate for the weight, so I figured might as well to the rears too.

Not high, 2.5"-3" with the added isos?
I prob wont see much difference with the height? at present I'm at 21.5" up front, and 21" rear.

Silverkk,
That sucks, that is one of my biggest fear, esp if I'm with the kids. Glad you're OK.

Bmxer524 · **Posted:** Sat Apr 12, 2014 11:55 am

Silverkk, glad you're alright. Blowouts are dangerous...

Knight, 2.5" rear springs I assume? Stack the isos a little and you should be around there. Not sure exactly how JBA springs sit. Up front you can adjust up to 4+" so you're set there.

I just measured mine. Rear is 21.5, front driver is 21.5-21.75 and front passenger is 22.

So I'm in a debate on wether or not to get extended brake lines before Moab because I don't think I need them but what is everyone else's opinion?

If you are still running the stock sway bar links, the stock brake lines will probably still be long enough, although I'm sure upgrading wouldn't hurt. If you have longer JBA sway bar links like I do, you will for sure want to upgrade to longer brake lines. At max flex/droop my stock brake lines are at their absolute max with the longer sway bar links. On the street you wouldn't stress them out too much, but in a place like Moab... :grim:

Putting on JBA's extended brake line kit is my next mod, and I won't wheel it before I do. :2cents:

Anyone know where I can get cheap rear shocks for the 4 inch lift and I think the measurement needed it 27.5 extended

jjohnson1892 · **Posted:** Sat Apr 12, 2014 4:50 pm

Just wired up LED bars and hit the hardware store for mounting hardware.

Needed 4 of everything, got 2 of everything, and too much shame to go back :oops:
