Thanks guys, I will say too that it drives a lot better having some weight returned to the rear end

Funny you would say as much because I totally agree! It always leaves me scratching my head whenever I see guys purposefully removing their spare to give them that SUV look. :crazyeyes:

I couldn't agree more, I never warmed up to the look of no spare even though I ran it for awhile while getting this, I must have gotten used to the stiffer ride too because when I test drove it last night and then to work this am I was like man this is a nice smooth ride! I guess I forgot what I had

Tire carrier turned out great! Glad to hear it's driving smoother too.

Thank you, I'm glad I went with body match powder coat for the corners/hinges and bumper match for the carrier itself

Jeep is looking really good. Making me wish I would have gotten the black. I was trying to think down the lines of what black paint looks like 10 yrs from now. That black looks sharp.

Thank you, fortunately it's only 6 months old and personally love the black but it is hard to keep clean this time of year. Just gotta keep the shine up and hope the pin stripes to look to awful down the road!!

had a few min yesterday afternoon so I relocated my CB antenna To my corner and put a 2' on there for driving around town. Hopefully this week I can get my sliders painted up, skid plates installed as well as my dynomax exhaust installed but we'll see how it shakes out- lots of parts still sitting on the floor!

Thanks! Yes I did, it was actually right around my 4' which is right at 1 on my cobra meter that's built into the cb

Thanks guys, little by little I'm getting there. Looking fwd to getting all the stuff my garage installed now that it seems like it's warming up a bit (except for the current storm) but get those done and then the 37/slabs, and I'll be all ready for the rocks to emerge from the snow!

Lol. The only work I could maybe see being done is with a shovel!
