CopperCon Build

[rino]

I had both a fabric tent (ARB Simpson III) and a hardshell tent (Autohome Columbus) and can tell you that yes, the fabric will in fact mold if it doesn't get the chance to dry out. In addition, the fabric does weep if left folded for too long while the exterior is wet.

I'm leading toward a Rhino Rack and James Baroud RTT for now, until I settle on a JK replacement top/camper shell I'm happy with. I would have been happy with the J30, but the customer service is lacking heavily.

I couldn't be any happier with the RhinoRack / James Baroud setup I have and the versatility of being able to quickly remove the tent when not needed is a big plus for myself.

Got the Hutchisons mounted on the BFG AT KO2's and decided to run 10oz of Dynabeads for balancing. I also decided to keep the TMPS system operational (I deleted the sensors on my last Jeep and disabled the system). So far so good, looks like gears, tire carrier, and a rack are next up.

Looks awesome! You'll love those tires. I got them last Fall and had the opportunity to drive them in snow and ice this winter. They did great in the snow, but it was on ice that I was truly impressed. Cars around me were spinning out and driving off the road, but my Jeep never broke traction. Do you feel any difference with the weight of the Hutchinsons? Enjoy!

Glad to hear, thanks for the compliment and feedback. Not sure on feeling difference in weight with the Hutchinsons. This is my second set on my second JK, and I never ran any other wheel on 37's in my JK.

I plumbed and filled the airbags to 35lbs. Test drove the Jeep around town and so far everything works as I had hoped.
