That’s a great idea! I don’t see the one handed drawer pull on AAL website - @amelforf - are those custom made?

@ameldorf I love my drawer system from AAL, one issue I have is the edges of the drawer, sharp enough to give me a few paper cuts.
Any concerns with edges on the drawer pulls, or, are they dremeled down a tad to take the edge off?

I went out and checked. There’s nothing special to the edges. The powdercoat takes down some of the sharpness but they are square. Nothing felt like it would cut me though.

I swapped my wiper cowl today for a painted one from Distinction Applied. They paint a new OEM cowl, and the paint match is fantastic.

I also took this time to drill small holes and insert grommets to pass through the washer fluid hoses. The Jeep/MOPAR instructions for the 'Performance Wipers' have you pass the hoses through the same openings as the wiper motor shaft. Unfortunately, the quick disconnect fittings will then rub on the cowl. At a minimum, it'll scratch up the cowl. But after prolonged use, the cowl will actually cut through the hose.

Drilling separate holes and passing the hoses through grommets will solve that. I was a little nervous drilling through a freshly painted part, but some blue painters tape and careful planning paid off.

Came home to this from my daughter and once I put this on, I'll be ready for anything! Great gift for a Dachshund dad for a lot of reasons....

Here are some pics of the new bracket. They are identical.

Don't want to add any confusion to this, but the MY24 front brackets are definitely different than the previous years. I would've post pics but I've already discarded the old brackets.

The MY24 front brackets are lower (similar hight as the mid and rear ones). The older ones were taller by an inch or so.

Not sure when RSE split their models, but around Thanksgiving 2023 they had only the pre 2024 model, which created a problem for me and other 2024 owners.

If you already have ordered the MY24 RSE model you should be set.

Played in the snow. Holy moly. So much fun.

@Got Pipe, can I ask if yours is a 2024 and if so, what RSE part number on the sliders you installed? I just had the BD-SS-300-JL4 version delivered from Quadratec, thier site said it fit the 2024 but I asked Rick Slide Engineering via email about the rollover bracket issue and they fave me part #BD-SS-301-JL4, then I find there may be an issue with a bracket change for the '24.

Those are the ones I have on my 2024. (I ordered back at the end of October, about a month before my jeep showed up). I got them on but it was a pain in the butt. the pinch seam bolts did not line up and I had to drill out all of them. I'm not mad at rockslide, since I got mine before anyone really had put them on the 2024's./anyone knew of differences. You can get them on but it's a pain LOL. The Armor was a PIA too. BUT I would do it again in a heart beat.

Questions for you, on Rustys website it says those skids are not compatible with the 392. I know the metalcloak ones dont work because the 392 frame is different in the rear. Also your spacers are laser cut 392 Never mind, found them!

Rusty's Rear Lower Control Arm Frame Side Skid Plates - 392 JL Wrangler Models

Note: This product will only work with 392 JL Wrangler Models The rear lower control arm mounts on the JL hang low on the axle and are vulnerable to trail damage; it doesn't help that they're made out of relatively thin material. Rusty's Rear Lower Control Arm Frame Side Skid Plates reinforce...

No pictures yet, but I've added some rubber seals to the edge of the AAL MASS Platform. While I like the AAL stuff, some of their things are not perfected. I'll write more on why, but lets say that any small object that manages to roll under it is a PITA to retrieve. The rubber seals fix that.

Also ran 2 pairs of 10AWG marine cables to the back of the Jeep to feed my ARB Twin. Found a perfect, out of the way place for it, under the AAL shelf above the fridge. Pictures to come in my "Casper build" thread.

Epic Kraken + ARB Twin for the win on a cold morning. All four tires from 28 to 35 psi in less than 2 mins. Line at Wawa for air was deep.

…Interested in seeing what you did to seal the edges.

happen to have part# for gourmet?

Nothing fancy. I ordered a grommet kit from Amazon with several sizes.

InstallGear 180pc Assorted Rubber Grommet Kit - 8 Sizes (1/4", 5/16", 3/8", 7/16", 1/2", 5/8", 7/8", 1") | Car Grommet Kit Assortment Rubber Wire Grommets for Wiring Automotive | Rubber Grommet Kits https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079NG9F4G?tag=jeep392-20

I used a 3/8” grommet (drilled a 3/8” hole with a step bit for each wiper).

I also replaced all of the washer tubing with a 6’ piece of 7/64” ID tubing that I picked up from my local O’Reilly Auto Parts. All of the fittings that came with the MOPAR Performance Wiper kit were reused in the new tubing.
