What was done to your rig this week?

Not that it was necessary at all more like cosmetic upgrade. After removing factory rubicon sliders and installing EVO once the seem did not look as clean as I wanted it to look so I decided to go with Hammerhead trim kit which I think gives a more finished look. it us pricy for what it does,oh well.
Some before and after pictures.

Looks good. Do they make a gladiator version? How much?
 
That’s the RR Venator bumper, right? How you like it? I had a line on a stupid good deal for one but the dude backed out on me 🙄
No it’s the Arcus bumper. It’s very simple, and follows the lines of the JL/JT quite well. It’s also really easy to install. I’ve not been the biggest fan of RR but they hit this one out of the park.
 
Ah you’re right it is, thanks for correcting me. Yeah I dig them too. RR has some nice looking products at the moment…surprising actually 🤣

bought a Tuscadero Willys Sport for the wifey.

Edit: here’s the details - 2.0T, hard top, manual windows and locks (thus the Sport aspect of it). Really love and hate it cause it’s what I want Bluey to be (more or less) but it’s fuckin’ pink lmao she absolutely loves it though so I’m stoked about it too. Now I’m dying to lift Bluey, but a front bumper on it, and get KM2s (or steal hers lmao)
Bluey could use a set of LOD rock rails and an AEV 2.5" JLU DualSport RT similar to what I have in my garage waiting to be sold .... ;)
 
installed knock-off factory steel bumper (you get what you pay for), mopar winch plate and Warn 10S.
1. Dear Warn, thank you for making shooting myself in the nuts sound better than dealing with that fucking key lock lol
after about 30 minutes my brain started working, put some RU-Gylde on the end of the rope and twisted the helper wire around a socket extension for leverage, took less than a minute to get it in place.

2. mopar winch plate is thick, bolted it all up to make sure it was level then had to remove the bumper and front winch plate mounts to get the winch in. It's a tight fit! getting the inner 18mm nuts on the hook bolts and tightened was a PIA

not too worried about the winch getting stolen, it's in tight and too much shit to take off to get to it.

Added on-board-air. I used pretty much the same system that WayAlife used on their Gladiator. I used the ARB compressor and the WayAlife ACM. I really liked the idea of mounting the compressor under the hood. For the air chuck placement, I made a couple of brackets that mount to the fenders under the hood and put an air chuck on both sides to make things a little easier.
