Had some time available this weekend. First I removed the factory sliders. While doing so I started thinking again! I thought I should just go ahead and start trimming the back wheel opening. Grabbed the Sawzall and started hacking away. Not sure if it's enough, but it's a start. I...

Small update. I ripped off the rear fender flares and inner liners last night. I drilled out the holes and installed the nutserts to be able to mount the new Nemesis crawler fender flares. Then I started thinking...dangerous I know! I easily could have mounted the flares last night. However...

I have 2 thoughts on spare tire carrier. My first thought is to mount it in the back of the Jeep. Perhaps an added bar to the roll cage to mount it? Again, not my daily driver so I'm not too worried about the rear cargo space. I am planning on installing a Genright cage this coming Summer...

I went with this rear bumper from VKS. https://www.vksfab.com/product/shorty-gen2-rear-bumper/ My thoughts on purchase....I wanted a hitch to have the ability to pull my trailer if needed. I'm also building this to be more of a trail rig. My limited experience tells me the hitch and rear...

Hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving. The couple extra days off work was appreciated. I got to spend time with family, friends, and squeezed in some time to work on the Jeep a little. The weather was warm enough that I decided to get a few things painted. I painted all 4 Nemesis crawler...

I would vote for "No Wheel Spacers" as well. However, I do run some 1.5" spacers on my TJ when I went to 37's. I have properly back spaced wheels on it, but it still rubbed and shortened my turn radius too much. Luckily I didn't have that issue when putting 37's on my JK. Proper back spaced...

Yes, I have a problem. :p I have 3 Jeeps now. I started with a TJ that was supposed to be for my son. He ended up not wanting it and it has snowballed from there. I made some modifications to it, but really wanted to do some wheeling out west. I figured a 4 door with air conditioning would...

Looking at your wiring, did you run a wire from the Redarc controller to a brake wire? I tapped into the brake wire just above the brake pedal. It's a pain to get to.

My wife and I decided to buy an early retirement present for ourselves. That present will be towed behind the Jeep and includes electric brakes. So I installed a Redarc Tow Pro Elite trailer brake system. I cut a hole into my bumper to mount the 7-Pin wiring connector. I also cut a hole in...

Have you seen this Trail Recon video? I know this isn't mounted to the rhino rack, but when you mentioned "smaller amber chase lights" its the first thing that came to mind. He added some amber lights to the back of his Jeep. Skip to the 10:00 minute mark if you want to go straight to the...

Can you answer a few questions on this head unit? Can you cast, or mirror your cell phone screen to the head unit display? How many camera's can you hook to it? Only wired Android Auto? Have you had it a while? Sorry, it looks to good to be true. lol

I purchased my setup through the site I linked below. They make kits for 2 door and 4 door. As Speartip mentioned, the compressors can be and are noisy. However, I don't think it's horrible. My wife and daughter never complain while airing up. I have no regrets mounting it under the...

Yours are more exciting. At least they are actually installed! I'm just in the collector/dreamer stage...lol

For right now I plan on using the brakes that comes on the Dana 60 & 80 from Fusion. I'm buying the complete axle sets from them which have the 1 ton brakes already installed. I also believe I am going to install a larger master cylinder. I'll see what that gives me and go from there. Every...

Talking about more dollars.... I'm getting ready to order Fusion Elite Kingpin Dana 60 front axle and Elite Dana 80 rear axle. Those will come with 5:38 gears, E-lockers, and 73.5" wide to help with the rubbing from the 42's.

Added some more parts to the collection. I picked up the wheels and tires last night. I'm starting to think I am crazy. These tires are huge. I sat one next to my JKU which sits on Toyo MT 37" tires for a comparison. I love the KMC wheels too. I need to decide if I want to powder coat...

Jeeeez, I really need to watch what I write. lol. Ok, so as I was mentioning, I was getting close to making a decision and purchase of some new axles. So I went to a local shop to get some more opinions, or to verify my thought process of what parts to start obtaining. They were on board...

As I mentioned, for some reason I really didn't care for the star on the hood. I have no idea why. I debated on trying to remove it, but I wasn't sure how that would turn out The hood also has a few small dents and some scratches that didn't show up in the pictures. On a whim I checked my...

I'm not a huge fan of the star on the hood or the silver grille. I knew the bumpers, fenders, and sliders would be replaced so I wasn't too concerned with those. The radio quit working a couple weeks after I got it, but the rest of the interior is really clean.
