I was thinking about what projects I want to do to the red rocket this summer.

The first one is getting rid of the 35’s and going with a 32 or 33 inch tire. The 4 angry squirrels love the 31’s on there now but, it looks a bit funny with the 4 inch lift.

Second one is new fenders. The one’s on there now are rusting. I was thinking about a set of AEG tube fenders. I really never off road it except for some farm and logging roads so, basically they’re just for looks. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.

Thirdly, I want to run LED lights all around the rocket. I’m planning on putting JK front marker/turn signal lights in the grill and round brake/ reverse lights out back. It looks like a pretty straight forward install. Any suggestions on how and what is needed other than a LED flasher from Poison Spider again would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
a few options on how to mount the signals....

I think this is on my todo list this summer too.
But first I need to build some new 2" flares.... hopefully tubular aka MetalCloak style.
 
How do you guys think textured rocker guard paint would work and look on rock sliders, etc ...

How about LED head lights with an integrated turn signals?
 
When I purchased the Jeep it already had LED head lights. I really like the look of the running/ turn signal lights in the grill.
