New Rubicon Build
 
5 Attachment(s)
Hello all,
I'm new here so bare with me. I am also late to posting pictures. But this is my second Jeep JKU I have owned. I originally bought a 2011 JKU Mango Tango and added a few mods to it. I loved it but it was a 2011 and I hated the motor. Once the commute got longer and I bought a house, I decided it was time for something else. I bought a beater to commute in and a new to me truck. Truck was awesome (Ram 2500 Cummins), but not a Jeep. So this past December I decided it was time to go back to a Jeep. This time I wanted to do it right. In Northern Virginia it is hard to find a Rubicon that is not fully loaded and a 6 speed, but I finally found one for a great price.

After that the itch started and boxes flowing to my doorstep. First the front bumper, then the rear tire carrier, and then the side rails. This past weekend, the brother-in-law and I got the lift on.
Body Armor rear bumper and swing arm, Body Armor front stubby, Smittybilt side rails, Rock Krawler 2.5 Max flex, Pro Comp wheels and Toyo tires. AFE Hi-tuck exhaust

I just wired in the SPod and the front lights.

Once I sell the factory Rubi wheels and tires, I plan on putting the winch on it.
So there it is for now. Let me know what you all think, and Hello Again

A little help?
 
Well I think I jumped the gun. I think this should probably be moved to Show and Tell. Any help?

Looks like a hell of a start.

You're in the right place. If you put it in show and tell it would probably get moved here as this is the members build forum. Unfortunately it doesn't get as much traffic as show and tell.

Looks good. My wife has the same color but with a hardtop. What LEDs are those?

The LED's are from amazon. They are cheap, but so far so good. They are really bright too.

Flood
Robot Check

Spot

My theory with the lights are there are a lot of shady people in Northern VA that want to steal what you have worked hard for. I would rather them rip off a $15 light than a $100 dually. So far so good.
