2 door soft top JK

Thanks. I REALLY want a rear bumper now, because it's far more likely I'll get rear ended in the future than randomly getting backed into.

Just a quick update, an old guy decided to stop in the middle of an intersection, throw his full size truck into reverse, and back up right into me. His rear bumper was all smashed in, my steel bumper had a couple chips of paint missing and ZERO damage. I touched it up with a rattle can and it's...

I'm trying to come up with a solution to haul a Kayak on my 2 door. I don't want a permanent rack, and I want to be able to haul a kayak with the top up or down. I figured I could do the Rugged Ridge light bar over the windshield, and leave that on permanently, but I still need a way to secure...

Wow I really like the rear. It is a nice match. Any write ups on how you did it? I know its a lot more complicated than the front since there are no horns to bolt directly to. I'm pretty sure that's the AEV carrier? I've seen others use it solo without their bumper as well but I've never seen it...

It's a shame you had so much trouble with your Rubicon. A lot of times these things are hit and miss and it happens with all makes and models. My 2010 Frontier Pro-4x needed the windshield resealed at 2000 miles and was deemed not warrantable by the first dealer I went to. The second dealer 45...

Thanks! I based it off the Jeep J8 military bumper actually so you are right on point. Eventually I might buy the bolt on D ring mounts, but they cost about $100 so I don't know if it's worth it compared to the factory tow hooks.

No I've never been there. I'll put it on my go-to list though. Thanks.

Alright, so the only thing that makes this an "expedition bumper" is that I'm posting about it here. :ylsmoke: But yeah I'm pretty happy with how this thing turned out and it was cheap to build and easily replaceable, even if you are far from home. Well as long as your expedition takes you near...

This brings up the idea that you should be able to order a "factory big brake kit" if you know the part numbers. I'm sure lots of guys would be interested in better brakes on this side of the pond. Espeically if the parts are interchangeable with other Chrysler products and can be found cheap.

Does anyone have info on this? I am pretty sure it is not released but it could be what I'm looking for. http://imgur.com/a/R1jkx#34 Before I saw that I was thinking of getting the Rugged Ridge light bar and the Bestop clamp on rack as a solution for carrying kayaks. That way I can remove the...

I've had mine leak like crazy and also had it not leak a drop. Whenever I remove the door surrounds the next time it rains after I put them back on I have to mess with them. I usually loosen the 2 screws and twist it a bit from the top side towards myself then retighten. Sometimes it won't...

Yeah I can honestly say all of your ideas are good and marketable. If I had the means I would start a company and just market them all.

It looks like a product Rugged Ridge would be interested in..have you contacted them about distributing it?

There are used 2012's on the market.

The Sport also has a Dana 44 in the rear, but with an open diff. There is an option for an LSD though. All Jeeps also have the brake lock assist or whatever it is called to give power to the wheel that needs it in a slip condition. Power windows, cruise control and AC are all options on a sport...

The khaki color (Sahara Tan) is no longer in production so if that is a color you want you will have a hunt on your hands. This topic seems to be mainly about choosing 2 brand new vehicles, but if cost savings is why the OP is considering a modified sport over a Rubicon then of course the...

Well the 4.10 is no longer an option on the sport so that is another thing to consider. For all you guys saying the rubIcon has better resale value I think that is incorrect. It's a niche vehicle and most people don't need or want the extra off road stuff. Price out used sports and used rubi's...

For overland I would absolutely go with a 4 door. If you don't plan on crawling rocks, you don't even need a Rubicon in my opinion. I'm sure you know the differences between the sport and the rubicon so you need to figure out if those differences are worth 7k dollars to you. Your personal...

I was curious about your drawings too. They sure look like they are correct to scale blueprint drawings. Are they really to scale or are you just that good at visualizing how things look?
