i shouldnt like jeep builds as it goes against my nature but i do like this.
It does help on the side hills for sure. "thumbsup"
Thanks! 8)
I don't off hand, but they are probably going to be one of the narrowest they make. "thumbsup"
The 4 plastic link, and upper links, fit with the servo in the stock location, no mods needed. "thumbsup"
Nice!
C'mon, you know you want one. ;-)

Hi Bender,
I ve read your blog about the bodywork on the jeep rubicon with hardtop and i didnt really understand the part how to make the top and interior matte black. Is it possible to do the whole body like that? So do you paint it inside or outside?

The flat black paint is on the oustide of the body. Basically, to paint the outside of the body flat black, or parts of the body flat black. I cut the over spray film and use that as my mask on the outside. So, to paint the interior flat black, I cut the over spray film with an X-acto knife around the interior and peeled the over spray film off the interior area only. Then, spray black on the outside, and peel the rest of the over spray film away after the paint has dried. "thumbsup"
The paint can scrape off if it is in an area prone to rock rash. The interior tray will be fine since it doesn't see any exposure to rocks. 8)
On mine I painted the inside black also so it is less noticeable when the flat black exterior is scraped.

I saw that article. How are they holding up? Have you taken them out and bashed the snot out of them yet?
I haven't even had a chance to try them yet, but they should hold up. 8)

I really liked 'em too till I put on som pitbull rock beasts... they have way better lateral traction (IMO) For a stock tire though the Trepadors are great performers. Looks Like you got a sweet spot to run your truck too!!! I have a hard time finding good spots where I live.
