Yes he is, love your pup, we have a Schnauzer also that rides with us when the wife rides
Best upgrade I have done on mine. I like to sit tall in the saddle and have long legs. The comfort improvement is great and at a low cost.

Had new tires (Baja Boss M/Ts) installed.
Then I took it to my favorite local testing spot. It's really just a National Forest campground dirt road, but it's a beautiful spot that's only about 15-20 minutes away from my house and there is one fairly steep set of rocks just off the trail that Jeeps play on. I use this for testing new things before I go do some real wheeling. This picture is on a different flat rock at one of the camp sites that is my favorite photo spot (Same spot as my avatar photo).
First impression of these tires is that they are very grippy. They seem considerably more grippy than the KM3s I ran for years. Time will tell how they wear. I can't wait to take them on a real trail.

Sunset on Kentucky Lake.
Suffered a minor bump against a tree. Turkey Bay at Land Between the Lakes is full of surprises.

Replaced the tired old Doetsch Tech 3000 series shocks with some Rancho RS5000s a couple weekends ago. Huge ride quality improvement. Didn’t realize just how bad the old shocks had gotten. Took for bloody ever… but other than that, everything went on and off pretty much hassle free.
Speaking of shocks, I'm thinking about replacing the shocks on mine. I had to replace the rear shocks because the rear passenger shock locked up and ripped out of the mounting spot in the body. I ended up getting Skyjacker Black Max shocks and I'm not a fan of them so far. The rear seems to be way more bouncy than the front since I didn't replace those at the same time.
What shocks do you have up front?
Drove by to look at my Jeep while still waiting on my camshaft position sensor to show up.
Took the boy out for his first ride in the Jeep. It also gave me a chance to test the Rock Hard rear harness bar for the rear mount of his seat and the Seatbelt Planet lockable belts. Everything locked into place very well. I would even say that it was better than in our Equinox.
Atlas clears, need to trim the exhaust bracket, then that project can progress to the shifter and put the interior back in!
I put a zip tie on the site tube at the oil full level. Makes it easy to monitor.
Went out and tried to get to the back side of Schweitzer mountain, made it to the 6k foot mark and got stopped by snow (none of us were prepared for snow wheeling) and quite the snow storm/blizzard complete with some wicked thunder and lightning. Turned around and went back down the mountain and had lunch at Moose Knuckle (chicken and waffles were the bomb). Decided to run up to Sundance peak lookout, made it to 6200 feet before hitting 14 inches of the devils dandruff, apparently no one has informed Idaho that it's now June
The SwayLoc worked fantastic but refused to re-lock when we got down off the mountain, seems it didn't like all the mud puddles we had to blast through getting up the mountain.
