Traded the 2008 2dr for a 2017 4dr two weeks ago, so far got the windows tinted including the windshield, installed Hothead hardtop roof insulation panels, AFE lifetime air filter, Smittybilt front and rear bumpers and Hardrock rock sliders.

Looks great. Any issues with the brake bleed. I'm wanting to swap my rears out. But last time I opened up the system the jeep had to go in for an abs bleed [emoji1361]

If you use a stick or something and depress the brake pedal before you start the lines it will close off the system. You will only get a little brake fluid that will run out when you disconnect and no air will get into the system. After you reconnect the lines then remove the stick and proceed with the bleed.

This was a tip from another member and it worked great.

I accomplished quite a bit this week, all of which I'm really happy with!

First swapped out my JW Speaker headlamps for some heated trucklites:

Then I took the entire day on Saturday to swap out my blown subwoofer and wire all the fun shit on my tire carrier. This was a bitch fishing wires through but it came out super clean! Really happy to have a rear view camera again and the dust lights are perfect since I was getting rid of the hardtop this week.

And Monday my soft top arrived. This thing turned out amazing, I love the look, it saved some weight, it's super versatile and it's not an NX (no offense I love those too just wanted to go against the grain a little [emoji482])

Where did you fish the wire through? I've been toying with this for a while. Be curious to see what you did.

Top looks great. I like the squared off look. Supertop Twill? Pricey bastards but I really like the material.

Thanks man. It's the Esky EC170-11 off amazon.

Thank you! Fished it through the bottom rail.

You swapped out the JW speakers for Trucklights....do run into issues a lot in the winter due to not having the heated lights.
