Lol. Just saw this. I am glad you find them useful...but I promise I am not cool. (Just ask my 13-yr-old son)
Nice to see you diving right into this Jeep Sharkey!! :thumb:
LOL!! I think the skids trump your lights, better get to work
Wow!

Possibly hanging the cage from an overhead crane to set it in the tub while the Jeep goes down the assembly line? Either way, I never knew they were there and it's a great idea to bolt brackets for hanging luggage vertically :yup:

Done and done. Think I'm going to get a second strap for the passenger side. The angle of the seat makes it difficult to get the strap in the middle of the extinguisher using the existing holes in the seat mounting bars.
I also had to play around with the driver's side a bit to get just the right angle on the extinguisher so the pull tab wouldn't hit the interior door panel. Once I got it in the right place though, there is plenty of room.
So that's nearly 6 lbs of BC dry agent in easy reach. Next will probably be a single 5lbs ABC on the rear cage for more of a general ground fire situation.

I would if I could (I tried). The angles of the seat bracket and heights of the seats on the frames are different between the two seats. Flipping the driver's side ends up putting pressure on the handle. Plus, with the red tabs in, an accidental discharge is at least a little less likely.
Nice!! Good job on the install. :thumb:

Can I chime in?
I have decided to build to 35's as well and that's it, I will never as long as I can see, nor want to afford 37's (built right) for what I want to do. Always going alone with the wife and two girls since no one likes me much/and/or just bails on me like them pansies that bitch about this forum...
So that being said, if y'all were to do the best non coilover lift, what is the ideal setup needed to run 35's keeping the stock fenders intact?
JKUR - 10th anniversary bumpers, Warn Zeon and Hi lift jack up front - 120 lbs? Full Rockhard skids, 1.5" spacers and I am running 285/75/17 (33" exactly, mounted) BFG KM2's now, no rubbing with a 2.5" front/1.75" rear spacer lift. I plan on adding Rockhard sportcage too so there will be a bit more weight, I already have the C gussets done.
I want the best springs/shocks/brake line extensions/axle correction etc. to make this work good without rubbing uncut fenders.
Want this thing as low as possible and not having to weld on or change too much shit, like the driveshaft, if possible.
I'm sure it's been gone over many times but any advise or personal experience much appreciated!

Ok. MTG inspired me with the custom deck. I was going to get the ORV stealth shelf, but I think I can build it more to my liking by doing it myself.
Stay tuned if you are interested.
Step one: crafting some brackets to hold the support beams. I will be using only factory holes.
