Now we are pretty much up to date. Yesterday at my work I painted my front and rear axles in preparation for new diff covers this week.

Thanks! I did make a mistake of not covering the windshield from the sparks and got some minor pitting. Nothing visible but you could feel it.

easy fix, there are several glass cleaning/polishing products that will clean that up nicely

Where were you when I needed all these great ideas? What does the Dynamat do for you?

Dynamat cuts down on road noise, heat, and vibrations/rattles. Most people use it for car audio. I can have the stereo blasting and my only rattle is my rear wiper blade and that's very minor. The heat reduction was worth it to me being in Arizona.

Great idea, I am most impressed with your build. I cannot wait to see where it ends up...not there's ever really an end!

I lived it Casa Grande for a few years but didn't have a jeep back then so I didn't get to explore many places...

I really enjoy your build and your attention to detail.

Just one question, my rubicon decals are getting pretty beat up. Where did you get yours? I like the font and the reflective vinyl.

I got some crap from the 10A crowd saying that I was trying to be like them.

Don't let those 10a guys bother you. I remember when the Rubicon X came out they were all pissed off. Your jeep, do as you please. I really like the reflective decal up front!

Yeah first it was the 10A in 2013, then the Rubi X in 2014, and the 2015 rubicon hard rock edition looks the same.

Give me a break, your jeep cost like 5-6k more than mine. It's not like I couldn't afford that.
