What was done to your JK this week?
This week I began the modification of my 2016 Rubicon Hard Rock JKU by removing the ends of the 10A bumper for a trip I am taking this weekend and also installing a Smittybilt X20 10K winch with synthetic winch line. I used the Maximus 3 winch mounting plate and winch hook anchor and the Smittybilt fairlead. The products from Maximus 3 were of very high quality and with my limited mechanical ability moderately easy to install. The installation took about 3.5 hours with the help of a friend. Photos of the install are included below.

I finally got around to switching all of my fluids to full synthetic. Took this opportunity to put on some G2 differential covers.


After the install I found that my stock rear track bar was rubbing on the front of the new differential cover and had to grind the cover down a bit to fix the issue.


In all I am very happy with them.

Last night I installed my Cobra 75 WX ST CB with Firestick antenna on an EVO spare tire mount using the CFE products JK deluxe power tap kit. This kit makes connecting the CB to the power so quick and easy. Thanks to CRAWLTV on Youtube.com for a great installation video it went in very easily.
Here is a video they did describing all the components needed and showing in detail each item used.

Below are pictures of my CB and a picture showing how it looks in my Jeep after the installation.
