I fab'd a rear tire carrier plate holder. I had some scrap metal so I made a bracket inside the stock tire carrier that attached to a air hose quick disconnect. It works great!

Gotta love the girls of TP!
I recently picked up a set of unlimited Rubi Rails for my 2 door sport.
Got around to "sawsall-ing" them today....
i cut approximately 21.5 inches off the unlimited rubi-rails, replaced the end cap and bolted right up to the factory mount points....easiest mod ive done yet !
i decided to remove the wheels, support the frame & let the axle hang so i could mark the unlimited rails for a "perfect" fit....i SET the unlimited rail in place and then marked my CUT point it w/ a paint pen...
I then took the rail down and used a fine tooth blade in my sawsall and cut the rail, then i knocked the rear end cap out & used some liquid nails to glue it back in place on the new cut to fit rail.
some photos of the progress....in the final photo (wheel on) you can see the left over (21.5 inch) piece laying on the garage floor.

Im hoping materials for the front bumper get here this week. And I have an offroad trailer in the back of the garage waiting on an axle swap. Why I waited this long to to learn I will never know.

I gotta find out when their last weekend for the bikini car washes is. I went the first week and havent had a chance to go back since.
Had a productive weekend. After lots of reading and research I decided to take the plunge and plasti-dip my wheels, my grille, and I made a grille guard. Everyone was right, plasti-dip is AMAZING! Only took a few hours and I absolutely love the result.

About 7.5 to 8 inches long just for the actual handle part. Perfect length to put your elbow on the door/window edge and comfortably rest your hand on the grab handle.
