    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I installed the Teraflex 2.5" Budget Boost and the AEV geometry correction brackets yesterday. I got a good deal on a used Teraflex spacer lift, but it turned out to be missing the rear brakeline drop brackets, rear longer swaybars and front shock extensions. I ordered those. All considered I...

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    Yup. I sold my IPFs for $100 and am selling my oems on eBay. So $240 for trucklites and saving $150 over doing it tomorrow seemed like a decent deal.

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    Weird. I know they're switching to the rigid brand and to no discount pricing like AEV. But I read prices were going up, not down. Unless Northridge is pulling one over on everyone.

    What did you do to your Expo Jeep today?

    Yup, I'm trying to catch up to you. Picking up a temporary lift and a winch today. The JW speakers seem better. But I'm not a fan of their look or price. I like that the Trucklites look basically oem but slightly more modern. Now if I could find those Mopar Topo grill wraps from last years...

    Well this is finally out of the way. Kind of. Now I have to redo our garage to get all my tools out of the house. Which will be nice to have access to all my tools and expo gear and maybe even be able to store my hard top. I always plan to not drive at night. Then end up driving at night on...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I installed some ARB IPF H4 conversion headlights last week. The light was whiter. But without the foglights, the low beams were still barely bright enough to see on a darkish city street. The highbeams had more distance but were also too dim and th beam pattern too narrow. Luckily I bought them...

    Vector Offroad Exo Rack w/ JK EXO RACK LIGHT RISER - $120 I used this once but am switching to an AEV tire carrier and no longer need this set up. It's mostly lived in my storage unit. Creates a very solid rack for Rotopax, tools, lights, antennas, third brake lights, etc. It works with any of...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    Signed all the paperwork and gave them all of my money this morning. We bought it from our land lords who have kind of been like our west coast parents in that they've been much nicer to us than they should have been. They sold it to us for a good amount under market value to avoid the hassle of...

    Selling my less than a year old OEM headlights. Perfect condition. Willing to ship. It'd probably cost about $15.

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I don't think this is the normal way to buy a house. People normally save up money, get pre approved for a mortgage, then buy one. Our land lords came out of nowhere and said, "hey want to buy this place?" So we went from having like no money to buying a expensive house in Santa Monica in 6mos.

    Backup Camera in place of rear view mirror.

    Awesome how cheap these are now. Definitely going to add a screen above my rear view mirror for when I get a gas caddy.

    Speaking of useless mods, has anyone figured out a cheap way to simulate the grill from last years mojo concept? It's just a satin black wrap with topographic lines but I like the look and would give it a try for $100.

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I was about to order some from north ridge before the price went up but my friend who has them convinced me not too. I like the look though. For $75 I figured the ARBs were worth a try. In more important news, all our final mortgage loan docs went through today. Singing the final paperwork...

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I installed some ARB IPF headlight conversion kit tonight. Got a good deal on eBay. I'm not sure the upgrade is worth the cost. The light color is definitely better. The high beams seem better too. I'll aim them up higher and see. Might go with the trucklites after all.

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    That's what I was thinking. But I'm also leery of all those Evap plastic connectors. I broke all the engine bay ones doing the dual battery install and haven't fixed them.

    "Bruce" the 2014 Jeep JKUR Build Thread

    I'm excited to take another mod off the to do list. And not because I completed it, but because it's no longer necessary. 2013+ JKs come with an OEM stamped steel Evap cannister skid plate. So I don't think relocating or protecting it is a high priority anymore.
