First real "mod" to my 2012 JKR

Good thing for Way A Life's write up on the install. The instructions that were supplied were a tad "lack-luster". The longest part of the install was letting everything cool down. I timed the receipt of the skids to correlate with my first oil change so I could kill two birds with one stone. Having very little time in the evenings after work, it's dragging out a little longer but i have the oil pan skid on and put the transmission skid on tonight. The biggest pain was getting the nuts off of the isolator studs. Yes, i had a gear wrench but the limited space still made it a pain. The issue I kept reading about the people jacking up the transmission off the studs and trying to put the skid between the mounting plate and the isolator, went off with out a hitch! I just followed Way A Life's instructions, putting the skid ON TOP and it was super easy and worked like a charm...even with my wife raising and lowering the jack...haha. Tomorrow the remaining skid will go on...
