Has anybody noticed that on the 10a rubicon that the pinch seam is already modified from the factory? I was getting ready to do mine but they are already done. I still have to modify the rock rails but a least this is already done right from the factory

They did that on all the later build 2013. Some one mention it on here, can't remember now but I think it was all the Jeeps with a Jan 13 build date and later. It took Jeep only 6 years to do that. Amazing !!!

Its a mid model year change. My 13 didn't have em cut but my bro and sisters in law jeeps had em cut. I started looking at dealer and it was 50/50. Talk to service and they confirmed mid model change

I am going to seal it with a windshield urethane. I am also stoked that that this truck is seems to be at least 1 1/2" taller than a friend of mine stock sport. Both of our tires measure exactly the same at 31"

The early released 2013 didn't have it cut. I got one of them with the nice exacto blade next to my tire. I was walking around the lot while mine was having an oil change and noticed they all have been cut already. My buddy's Moab is cut from the factory. I'm cutting mine soon. Along with cutting the front bumper down to a stubby.

Cut pinchseam
Just took delivery of my 10/yr edition of the Rubicon this last weekend and the pinch seam has already been modified from the factory....now I just have to deal with the rock rail.
