Do you have a functional license plate light on the spare tire? Delete you are using? If you do, is it using the factory wiring or have you run a manual switch to the lighting?

I have the plain Threedom covers on my 392. They’re very discreet and not at all bulky. The are friction/pressure fit and just snap on.

I do recommend them.

my '24 AEV 392 has 570 snow miles on it and thank the Lord for lockers and Falken at3w, or i'd be plenty stuck! the Labs love it just like my '23 AEV 392 rear seats removed again, full of skiis, snowshoes and winter gear for daily excursions into the mountains. the AEV mods enough for me and you have the warranties, i just remove the rear seats.

They are his recovery gear!

Got the 37s and 2.5 Aev lift and mc diff skids installed. 4.65 0-60 with a passenger and recovery gear and winch is just awesome. Hooks up better with 37s although still spun some.

All lights are functional. The license plate light is from ORO. The factory wire for the license plate light is on the driver's side rear behind the tire. There is a plug for the harness to the bumper. On my Jeep it is the white with dark blue stripe. I cut it and spliced in a new wire. It goes through the crossmember, up the body behind the tail light, and through the grommet. From there under the plastic trim to the harness that goes to the tail gate. From there through the grommet in the tailgate with the wiring for the third brake light.

Been slowly working on cleaning up her *ss so she has a nice departure angle and is not hanging up in the rocks. Installed the Rebel Off Road Bak Pax mount. If you purchase this kit I would recommend getting the third brake light direct from ORO as the one they are selling is for use with a spare tire and has a bulky quick disconnect. He was kind of enough to swap me for the standard version so I could drill a hole and use a grommet for a cleaner look. Also Rebel has you reuse the stock Hardware which hits the Rotopax and causes them to cant and the sharp edges had me concerned as they contacted the cans. Replaced all the hardware with 8mm Button Socket Head and EPDM Sealing Washers. Also installed some Oracle tail lights to replace the Factory honkers. If anyone is interested I have two like new taillights for $100, only 3000 miles on my 392.

Finally got my suspension and bumper/winch installed by the gents at All J Products in Big Bear. AEV 2.5/8100, EX bumper, lights, Warn 12s winch and a custom recessed rear work light. Also added AEV center caps, gold Warn winch decals and a Mopar hood lock in the old camera location. My favorite part is the suspension...no more nose dives or wheelies and the side lean is gone. The 8100's do an excellent job of smoothing out the rough roads. Add that to the Teraflex falcon nexus 2 steering stabilizer and the Smart Steer brace, it's finally "dialed in". This thing will hustle up/down the twisties...remarkable. Very, very happy.

Are the shocks adjustable ?

Nope, but they are 2.65" with reservoirs tuned to the 3-stage progressive springs and 392. It works.

Thank you for the detailed response. I like the look and weight loss a lot and having a rear license plate light is a must have for me. Still debating whether my friends will save me if I tear a sidewall and don't have a spare. I do carry patching material already, but the grief I would get would be pretty severe as I have some tough friends I will with.

To be honest I didn't measure before/after. I did a quick measurement last night from center mass and it looked like 76". It's definitely taller. I'm still running the 315/70's, but will upgrade to 37x12.5r17 when they wear out.

What is the measurement from the ground through the center of the front wheel to the bottom of the tiny flare ? I bet you are over 41”
