The only bad thing is we can't bring it home until Monday because they just receive the Jeep and have to send it through the service dept. for prep.
Later this week UPS will be delivering all my mods I pre-ordered knowing I was going to get my Rubi soon.

Mods I will be receiving include:

Rock Krawler 3.5" X-Factor lift
Rock Krawler 3" Front and Rear Bump Stops
Bilstein 5100 Shocks
Fox 2.0 Steering Stabilizer with relocate kit
Poison Spyder Rock Brawler Mid Front Bumper w/Skid Plate
Poison Spyder Rock Brawler II Rear Bumper w/Tire Carrier
Poison Spyder Brawler Rockers
Poison Spyder LED Back-up lights
Bushwacker Flat Flares
XD Addicts 17X9 Wheels
35 12.5 17 Atturo Trail Blade MT


Hopefully, all of this will be installed within two weeks. A lot of it depends on the powder coaters. They told me it would be around a two week turn around. When all of this is done, I can't wait to start saving all my pennies again to get more stuff. I just left the Harley world for the Jeep world, will the spending ever stop???

Will post pictures of the progress.

Sounds familiar. Just go mine last week, didn't pre order but have ordered and now I have to drive around all small until everything is ready but sounds like we have similar taste in lift and body armor. Congrats.

Thanks everyone.
Tomorrow, the UPS man should be delivering the last of my stuff and hopefully in a week or so, I will have the lift, fenders, tires and wheels installed. The bumpers and rocker armor have to go to powder coat and he gave me an estimate of 2 weeks.
Me and my wife can't wait to see the finished product. We will definitely post photos of the progress.
