Turning radius isn't much different. I have a few washers added to the turning stops but it does just fine.

It's my favorite color as well! Partially the reason I sold my white Jeep is to have this color. As far as the EVO Tire Carrier, it is a great looking tire carrier and is very solid. The inconvenience of opening the tire carrier due to the pins not lining up at all, the poor fitment of the corner armor, and the rattling is what made me stay away from that carrier. It looks great but it made me not want to open my tailgate ever and I didn't for months because of it. I would fold a rear seat down to get access of the cargo area. Genright makes a great tube style carrier and Poison Spyder has just come out with their own that looks very tempting

A few more upgrades to add

Rebel Off Road Recon Coilover Kit with King 2.0 12" Coilovers went on the other day


Here's a shot of the Front all buttoned up


And a quick photo of #Ironmanjk and #Remoracon parked outside of work today on this beautiful Southern California day!

Hmmm... A pallet from Rock Krawler with my name on it? I wonder if if could be my Off Road Pro 3-Link Long Arm Kit!

Here is a shot of my new Teraflex Tera44 getting installed along with my Rock Krawler 3-Link set up. Very excited to have this under my Jeep and I can't wait to beat on them at Johnson Valley over the weekend.

One more progress picture. The rear end is getting melted on and ready for rear control arms. The jeep should be on the ground tomorrow and ready for alignment and exhaust work

Better late than never! Here are a few post-long arm install shots of the Jeep.

I am very pleased with the performance on and off-road with the Rock Krawler Off-Road Pro 3-link Long Arm kit. I haven't had a chance to get it out in the rocks yet but I can tell you this thing soaks up the whoops out in Johnson Valley incredibly well and I couldn't be happier. And good thing I got my new Teraflex Tera44 Front housing under the Jeep with 35-spline RCV shafts, ARB locker, Synergy ball joints, and all new Rock Krawler steering components before the Johnson Valley Trip or my axle may have been snapped in half by the end of the day.

The gap between the Rugged Ridge hood and the cowl looks too wide.

I like the Rugged Ridge hood and am considering buying one but I am very fussy with fitment and want the gaps to be similar to the factory hood. I've read several posts that say Rugged Ridge fitment and quality is not very good, but I have their front bumper and it fits and looks great! I've not had any issues with Rugged Ridge.

Amazing rig!

Sorry I didn't see this post sooner. I myself am very OCD when it comes to my Jeep and having everything lined up and fitting perfectly but the Rugged Ridge Hood never bothered me, in fact I have not even noticed a fitment difference between the few aftermarket hoods out there (Rugged Ridge, AEV, TOTL Innovations, Etc..) As far as quality, it is a great hood and I don't have any complaints. When it comes down to it, its about what hood style you like more and what you are going to be happy with.
