What did you do to your TJ today?

What slides did you use from Amazon? I see some for $42 with ok reviews and some over $100 with much better reviews.

I was going to do two cooler/cargo sliders on the top deck. I ordered these separately from different vendors as the first set wasn't available when I went back to order the second set. To me, they appear to be exactly the same thing. The first pair from Vadania says the capacity is 156 lbs, the second pair from SDPAWA says the capacity is 264 lbs. I guess I'll use those. China. What are you going to do? Both were over $100.

Then I ordered two pair of these for the drawers. 28" and represented at 150lbs. They came from China in less than a week and the seller confirmed my order by email. These were $75/pair.

Thanks. I am looking for something a little longer than 24. I do really like how you used the rails though. I was planning to build a box then a drawer to fit in it. If I do it more like you the drawer can be larger and the entire setup lighter than my plan.

That was my plan too, build a box then drawer, but hubby came up with the L brackets and I liked it. :D

I trimmed the fender brace toward the front of the fenders. Full lock, full stuff the tire can catch the brace and pull the fender down. Ask me how I know, Heading for AOP Saturday and will likely need that mod.
 
I put the used springs under my jeep and found this on the right front.

Day two of Bedrug install over thermal sound deadening from firewall to tailgate. (Yes, I took my time to insure full coverage) Feels like the inside of a Yeti cup now. Hardly any road noise, stereo sounds way better, can hold a conversation with myself without any yelling, possibly gained who knows how many horsepower. ; )
No pictures as I was wearing camo the entire time.
 
Re-spooled my winch and took the side steps off in prep for Saturday’s wheeling trip.

I juuust ordered the poison spider tie ins. Was hard to pay $50 for some raw steel.

Those look to be designed well. I think I’m another post I saw the nuts for the inside are welded to a bracket and there is an opening to access the body mount bolt. Neither was true with these (but I got them “free” with my bumper, so wasn’t going to complain).
