updates??? we have the same rig. well sort of. other than the lift and tires I have just been wheeling mine. I need to step up from the 35 mtrs, beating up my skids with the off roading here in colorado. you should bring moby out to RAM off-road park, place is set up for buggies. whole lot of fun in a controlled environment.

nice! with the 3.5 inch lift i have I destroyed the bellows on the front drive shaft. I am considering the AFE pipe that moves the cross over behind the cross member. Also, I have tom woods drive shafts on the short list now.

In preparation of a new aftermarket front bumper, we just installed an EVO MFG vacuum pump relocation bracket. This is a MUST HAVE for anyone with a 2012 and planning to install a big winch like a PowerPlant in between the frame rails.

Here's what the EVO MFG relocation bracket kit looks like...
