Do there have a purpose?? Otherwise confused why they are put on...

 

Yup, me too

 

I like the look, that's my purpose ... and some protection

 

I had grill inserts for about 2 years. Took them out; cooling increased by 5-7 degrees average in cool NW temps. I can imagine how an open radiator helps in hotter areas. Have you checked your transmission temp lately?

 

I call BS. They only provide protection if you are following too close to someone on a high speed trail. That makes no sense. Shouldn't be that close to anyone offroad anyway.

Just say - "I like how they look"

 

Just say - "I already said that"

road, trail, anything at anytime could pop up and hit any part of your Jeep. This adds protection no matter what way you look at it.

 

I will eventually get new tires and wheels, but I decided to go ahead and put the lift on first to see what it would look like with stock wheels and tires. I think it looks fine, but I do want 35" Nitto Trail Grapplers. It doesn't look like much, but I do have to hop a bit to get into the Jeep now. I'm sure the wife will be expecting some kind of step now. Add that to the list.

The new 2012 Black Ops Wrangler is what made me decide to put the lift on now. It has a 2" lift with stock wheels and tires, and I thought it looked good.

 

New spare tire carrier by Mopar. Just installed it with the bumper which was on it previously.

 

Just messin with you. That's what this is all about. Good Jeep people screwing with other good Jeep people. No harm meant.

People constantly ask me "why 40s?" Now I just say "because I can" LOL

 

Newbie here. I did the mesh install and love it!
