Cool Ghost Rider

My girlfriend's son named my black 2012 Wrangler JKU Rubicon "Ghost Rider" - she was originally a MW3 Special Edition with a few extras here and there, but the past 2 months have been spent on the monster rebuild of the Ghost. She's in the shop getting an external Line-X job done right now, but I'll post pictures as soon as she's home.

Here's the list of upgrades I've installed so far:

Rubicon Express 4.5” Extreme Duty 4-LINK Long Arm Lift Kit
King OEM Racing Shocks
King Hydraulic Bump Stops
Fox Racing 2.0 Performance Series Steering Stabilizer
Hutchinson 17x8.5 Beadlock Wheels
BF Goodrich 37x12.50R17 Mud Terrain T/A KM2 Tires
Smittybilt XRC M.O.D. Front Bumper with Bull Bar & Mid-Width End Plates
Smittybilt XRC Atlas Rear Bumper
Warn 9.5cti Winch
Genright JK Tube Flair Fenders
Currie Rock Jock Dana 60 Axles Front & Rear
- ARB Air Lockers
- 5.13 Gear Ratio
ARB 2.34 CFM Compressor
JK ANTIROCK Sway Bars Front & Rear
Rock Hard 4x4 Sport Cage
Tuffy JK Conceal Carry Driver’s Side Security Drawer
Tuffy Security Glove Box
Tuffy Security Center Console
Rigid Industries E-50 LED Light Bar
Rigid Industries JK Brow Mount Kit
Rigid Industries Dually LED Spot Lights (1 set pointed front next to the windshield, 1 set mounted on front bumper)
Rigid Industries Dually LED Flood Lights (1 set pointed to the sides next to the windshield, 1 set pointed to the rear mounted on the rear bumper)
Truck-Lite LED Headlights
Vision-X LED Fog Lamps (these were removed when I mounted the new front bumper, but I'm looking for a way to put them back on somehow)
Genesis Offroad Double Dually Light Bracket
Genesis Offroad Dual Battery Kit with 200 Amp Isolator & G-Screen
sPOD 6 Switch System with air gauge (Mounted above windshield - standard mounting)
sPOD 6 Switch System with aeroforce gauge (Mounted on dash above instrument cluster)
Dual Optima YELLOWTOP AGM Batteries
AEV Heat Reduction Hood
AEV Snorkel
Star Fabricating Smart Door System
Black Line-X Platinum Exterior Paint Job
Rubicam Heavy Duty Cameras with IR Low-Light Option front and rear tied into the LockPicked head unit
- Mounted the rear camera on the rear bumper just below the spare tire - works great as a backup camera
- Mounted the front camera just above the front axle - gives great view of low angle obstacles when crawling

Cool More Pics

She's coming together - should be finished in another week or so, assuming I can keep devoting all this time, and the shop lets me continue to use their space...

Ghostrider's major work has been completed. Took her up to Tahoe this weekend to see what she can do.
