Fun day in the Jeep today. Not many pics. Was busy driving.

What corners are those ?

What corners are those ?

Evo Mfg builders corners, also sometimes called outlaw corners. They come without the tube on the corner. Offroad Evolution added that to them when they installed them.

Picked up a better set of pins at Tractor Supply. Handles are coated with a soft red coating and they are much easier to install and remove. Better looking too!

Love the bar on the bottom of the builder corners! Brilliant idea.

Thanks! I first saw it on Evo 1 back when it was a satin red color, and that same armor from Evo 1 is now on Greg's Evo Jeep. Looks much more finished and covers the gap at the bottom.

Yeah it is

Had a feeling you would chime in on that.

Agreed 100%. I wonder what it would look like to continue that bar through the wheel opening to help close the gap there as well....

You know I think that'd look pretty good. Someone needs to do it, lol.

Yeah lol just really cleans it up and it would definitely help on the trail. Could've used them a couple times this weekend

Definitely my next mod. What is the length on the pins?

Not sure. I bought the only length 1/2" pins they had on the shelf. I'll measure them tomorrow and post up.

Some small flex from a run this past weekend up the back way to Crown King.

Had the cable on the parking brake handle break under the center console today. Happened twice on my old '08 JK, replaced under warranty both times. With all the mods done, and the completely different routing of the cables going to the ProRock 80 J8 brakes, I'm curious if my dealership will give me any hassle.

Never hurts to go and see. If they say they are gonna charge you than take it home and do it yourself

Yeah that's likely what I'll do. Just sucks tearing the console apart! IIRC the part is the handle and cable in one assembly.

Ran Payette Draw in Payson, AZ yesterday. Didn't get to do the waterfall at the end because it was full of water at the bottom, and it was dark.
