Yes I did. According to my dealer only the upgraded parts are not covered. I know there are stories of both sides on this one. Time will tell if I wasted my money.

I posted this in the mod section but thought it was worth repeating
After seeing pics in this thread about a new "pump" on the frame rail, I forwarded the pic to LOD asking if it would be a problem for their bumper. Plan was to pick up the bumper tomorrow and install it myself.

I am very pleased with the communication from LOD and the arrangements to make everything work for me and future 12 owners. I am headed there in the morning so they can look at mine and see what needs to be changed if anything.

SO just a warning if you are planning a bumper swap on your 12 JK, either go with LOD or make sure the manufacturer you choose knows about the changes and their product fits!

Once again this forum saves me time and frustration!!!

I'll post the results once it's installed.

Default How do you track your order

I want to start off by thanking everyone on the forum especially Milous... I just ordered a '12 Rubi Unlimited in Dozer and can't find how I track the build so I thought I would ask.

Good luck. I emailed them and got a simple "it'll fit" reply. Not exactly the detail I required to place the order. Maybe after tomorrow they'll get my business.

I'm working with Expedition One right now to get a bumper I had them custom fab to fit. Right now the plan is to remove the bracket holding the pump and slide it down the rail its attached to and re-attach it. I think instead of welding it back on, that I will bolt it back on. That way if it needs to be moved again it's less of a hassle. I will post pics later.

Anyone who has a new Rubi and knows all the skid plates are in place, could you please post a few pics so we know exactly what is supposed to be there? Not sure exactly what may be missing since this is my first Rubi.

I cut and pasted the VIN directly from his e-mail. Do I put the whole VIN # in or just the last eight characters? Maybe I am attempting to get into insight incorrectly?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Same here. Really would like to get it going
