I guess I'm starting to do things here and there so I might as well start documenting them.....

At the lot just off the truck, not even PDI'd

Threw a winch in, and some EVO skids. Also added the Dynomax exhaust because last JK that was the first thing to get bashed.

Added some some air with an ARB twin compressor, a Switch-Pros switch, and some rock lights for all the curbs in my life.

And here's where boardsurfer and I collectively came up with a great idea for mounting the switch-pros switch.

Looks good!! How are those lights attached?

Thanks! They come with an adhesive back, but I have some high temp automotive adhesive/epoxy that I'm going to come back and probably use - peeling it back off and reapplying, but I figured I'd use the adhesive tape on the back to ensure the light pattern is sufficient. I just have the front pods to finish and will be done.

The lights are nice and are waterproof and recessed so that if they did get hit they likely would glance off and not destroy the LED itself.

Love the switch placement! Looks great

I tried this temporarily and it looks great. I'm going to cut the wires and route them through the speaker grill as well rather than around and to the side, but haven't done so yet. The speaker grill works perfectly and makes it a no-drill install.

Added some china knockoff lights....surprisingly pretty comparable to Rigid lights and meet the specs...so we'll see how they hold up!

Also added some protection for the diffs...overkill, I know, but I've had these before on my last JK and they were on sale awhile back. Finally had to change the fluid so on they go!

Dude China knock off Leds are the way to go. Haha my only real issue is my 52" China led bar hums and causes my top to vibrate a lot. I'll address that this weekend though.

I'll be keeping touch I like the build so far!

Yeah these seem pretty legit compared to Rigid. They are even CREE LEDs, but I haven't cracked them open to confirm. Thanks, it's still early, but just chipping away at the build week by week!
