Bought a used shrockworks bumper for $400..one tiny ding on it. I also bedlined it. Now I just need to put my new 9.5ti in and the skid plate on and we're good to go!

Its been a productive one for sure. Installed my BDS rear trackbar bracket, woods hi-lift mount and tailgate strut. Also took a 3 hour round trip to pick up a set of spidertrax spacers and just finished installing them. Also fixed that damn strap on my soft top. It keeps coming off the rivets. Had to put the doors and top back on. Stupid thunderstorms.

Did some painting:
painted my stock muffler and exhaust black with BBQ paint, painted my stainless license plate cover black, and finally got around to painting my sahara silver steering wheel spoke trim black.

I've been debating about adding a permanent tank to my onboard air system. (I previously relocated my air outlet to the rear cabin). I'd like the spare capacity to help speed up airing times, but didn't want my compressor to always have to fill an entire tank every time I turned the system on. Ended up going a bit of a different route. Purchased a 5 gallon tank from Harbor freight ($19.99 - 20% off). Cut off the tire chuck and added a quick release and a splitter to attach a hose. Now, I can quickly tie into my onboard system. Should speed up airing tires, and will reduce the amount of cycling while engaging lockers. Added a strip of velcro to the back of the tank so that it holds tight to the rear seat. A quick release and I can take it out of the Jeep... Or just disconnect the hose so that the tank is bypassed.
From 0 PSI, it takes my ARB compressor 2:35 to fill the 5 gallon tank to 90 PSI.
Can take it out easily and plug into my garage Air Compressor to expand my capacity there as well.

I stripped all the fenders off and used duplicolor spray bedline to spray all the fender lines and also repainted my rear bumper to match. Started fabbing up my crush corners!!!
