Also received some Traction Offroad beadlock rings and hardware. Shipping was quick and I received a phone call asking if I had any questions. Now for the fun of mounting them.

Is that a rigid industries light, and what mount did you use?

Exactly the set up I have on my '21 392. Clayton 3.5" lift, Kenda Klever 37's and the RSE step (among other goodies). Looks great!

Thanks! Did you notice a big change in power going to 37’s? Is yours an XR?

Installed the Centerak covers, 67 Designs phone mount and added pics of the Tuxmats and Antenna from over the weekend.

I've looked at the Centerak covers but to me it looks like the wiring harness to the fog lights will get stressed with the wires getting bent at sharp angle. Did you notice anything like that?

I was worried about that too when installing but they stand off a bit. I will try to take some overhead pics tonight

I do not have the XR model, and I did not really see much of a power/acceleration shift when I went to 37's. That being said...I installed a Pedal Commander soon after the lift and tires were completed. Any perceived (i.e. butt dyno) degradation in power was immediately negated with a nominal setting of "Sport" or "Sport+". Heck, even "City" was an improvement!

I’ve been slowly changing the stitching color to red…made a little more progress today.

@WhiteBronze392 · Mar 8, 2023

Installed the Hothead sunshade. Install was easy peasy and fits great

Yep your are correct. It was pressing against the fog light wires on the passenger side but not the drivers. The wires actually come out the side of the blue connector. I removed the passenger side and moved the wires like the drivers. The cover presses on the blue connector not the actual wires but I am going to mess around with the covers some this weekend with my heat gun and see if I can correct that but not sure it’s an issue.

How do you do that? So much better!

Red Sharpie, fine point. Very tedious….I would like to take a moment to thank my kindergarten teacher for teaching me how to trace lines.
I was folding clothes a while back and noticed one on my kids names on the shirt, I asked my wife how long it had been there…she says 6 or 7 years washed every week or so. Sharpies are permanent

Added an MHF steering wheel. I naively assumed if came with the airbag cover but it didn’t. Ordered one today to match.

Also added a dual ARB with the AAL under seat mount. If you have a Weather Tech rear mat, you have to trim it to fit for easy removal.
Have single ARB in rear as well. Should be plenty of air.

Swapped the Teraflex for a Fox ATS.

Ameldorf, a purple oil filter?

Went on a market run and was messing with my Flir camera.

Yeah, it’s a Royal Purple filter. 20-820

Installed the 392 badge that arrived today from All Mopar Parts but noticed the bottom edge of the 2 was a little cracked. I emailed them a picture I hope they make it right.

Also ordered 37” Nitto Trail Grapplers from my local shop should install on the Innov8’s next Saturday. I was back and forth between them and KM3 but decided to give the Nittos a shot. They quoted me $375 for TPMS so I ordered these https://www.extremeterrain.com/jeep-wrangler-jl-tpms-sensor-metal-valve.html all the reviews I read said they work

Edit just ran across this I know is a Bronco but have never seen this comparison before.

How did you remove the locating pins on the back of that badge?
