Notices
JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

What was done to your JK this week?

Labor Day Weekend Mods:

1) Rubicon Rock Rails - Mopar
2) Poison Spyder Evap Skid Plate (this thing is totally worth the money!)
3) Decal on the rear window
4) Drilled MAG light clips on each front seat - at the base
5) Rugged Ridge handled covers - red
6) Rugged Ridge Grab Handles - Red
7) Rugged Ridge MAG light holder - roll bar

Decided against the RANCHO oil pan cover. Once I felt how heavy it was, I didn't trust that JB Weld would hold it. I'm sure that it might and lots of other people have success with it, but I don't trust it....neither did anyone else that saw it :-(

Finally installed The Rancho Oil Pan skid!
It ain't coming off...

Also, put on the Spidertrax Wheel spacers that have been lying around for 3 months.

Added my Smittybilt XRC 10 and a switch to control it from the inside. Also moved the solenoid up under the hood. Sorry about the cell phone pics.

That looks great, but the XRC looks a bit naked without the solenoid.

I would also be interested in a write up on the switch inside.

I don't really have a write up but I guess I could work on one. I got the switch from 12voltguy... you can find his stuff on the web. For the solenoid we took it out of the "box" and made a mount that hangs off the top of the fuse box between the fuse box and battery. I will try and post a pic of that tomorrow.

Got some new shoes (Pintlers + 35" KM2s) + a new shoe rack (AEV tire carrier, fulfilling my dream of being able to see nothing but tire when I look in my rear-view mirror. Oye).
Am now eating ramen for lunch/dinner for the remainder of 2010.

It was very weird doing a trail where I used to bump my ass all the time with 32s to sailing right over everything with 35s!!!

It's not you, it is scooted more towards the passenger side. It is really difficult to see out the back passenger side when you're changing lanes to the right (to make sure the lane is clear). As much as I hate hate hate having to pop the mirror out of door to be used with the relocation brackets, I'll definitely be putting the passenger mirror back on.

I'm still loving the tire carrier though. No squeaks/rattles, and I'm not paranoid that the next speed bump is going to collapse my tailgate because of the weight of the 35 on the stock carrier.
