Today I finally got my front license plate mounted on my JCR Crusader bumper so I can be legal here in Colorado. Also pulled the hard top off and put my bestop bikini on. Doors are going to comeoff for wheelin tomorrow.

 

Mounted my new AEV rear tire carrier to my MOPAR off-road bumper.
Install took about 5 hours. I had to drill a hole into the aev frame mount so the bolt holes lined up, and had to trim off part of the bottom edge of the bumper with an angle grinder... But all in all, not bad at all! I can do a detailed write-up later... Love the swing out with the tail-gate! Now, just to figure out how/where to mount my cb antenna... The bracket i was using wont fit behind the tailgate swing on the back door.
























Oh, had had to drill 2.75 inch hole in bumper for the swivel.... No problem.

 

Ball Joints. NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
