Installed the MORE dead pedal for the copilot. Nothing worse than having to white knuckle the Jesus handle on rough terrain.

Got some Raingler safety nets and grab handles. The roof ones are great for stuffing clothes maps and hanging things like winch gloves. I also got a cargo safety net so nothing comes flying into the passenger area in case of a roll or accident. Haven't installed it since it can go behind the front seats or the rear seats. I'll install it depending on my needs at the moment.

I have had a Raingler net for a while but I always seem to get some sag. Were you able to get yours super tight? Thinking about one of those molle roof panels now to.

The Molle panels help keep the middle from sagging. I also rotate the straps outwards after I tighten them down as much as possible. They seem to hold well like that. I've had them in my old JK, that didn't have the Molle panels, as well as my Hummer. As long as you readjust them, when they start to sag from use, you can keep them snug.

Installed the Teraflex 2.5" LCG kit with Duratracs, Spidertrax 1.5" spacers, and 4.88 gears. I love the look because it nearly looks factory. :)

Dang that just about brings you to double the value of the rig itself! It looks factory to me :)

This is exactly how a Rubicon should look. :beer:
Tires properly sized for the rims, Just the right clearance for full articulation.
Great work.

Ramped the truck to adjust the adjustable bump stops. It was close to 1000! Once I get some high clearance fenders I'm sure I can get a bit more flex. :)

The bad news is that the drive shaft is getting hung up on the EVO evap skid. :( I'm guessing I'm going to have to modify it some to shift it over.

Rats! I was afraid that would happen.
If you aren't stuck on the EVO skid (which is a great quality piece), you might consider relocating the Evap.
Tucks it out of the way between the upper shock mount, and the bracket for the P-Brake cables.
Opens that whole side up for mounting a tank. :)

1000 on the ramp is pretty impressive!

I've considered an evap relocate but I'm not aware of any kits outside of the unreliable Jeep Swag guy.

Hopefully you can just slot the holes and slide it over some.
Not sure about the driveshaft boot availability, but you should be able to get the clamp.

I used a Nemesis Off Road kit. Nicer quality setup than the Swag, but priced to go along with it.

After heating the tubes, I didn't have to cut into the stock system. Other than the bracket, it's still OEM.
Just flipped the valve plate over so it wouldn't code.

Started installing the first of the color matched parts. I did them all in flat Mojave Sand instead of shiny clear coated. I chose the Teraflex rocksliders because it has the wide step. It helps keep obstacles away from the truck and the wife has somewhere to step on when getting in. I'm aware that it accumulates crap on there but it's primarily a daily driver, so I'll clean it off the few times I get to hit the trails.

I added some clear skateboard grip tape to make getting in less lethal on wet days.

I like how it's starting to look. Can't wait to get the other color matched parts. Later down the road I'll also do the hardtop.
