    Building the Grendel

    After doing tourist stuff in DC for a day and a half, it was time to start our journey back to Texas. We spent the night in this cozy little cottage in Warm Springs, VA called the Inn at the Gristmill. They have a restaurant called the Waterwheel, and it is fantastic. From there we traveled...

    Show your 2 doors on 35's stating lift you are running.

    2.5 inch metalcloak lift. very meh. the top portion of the dual rate compresses completely even under extremely light loads. it's only useable on extreme off camber. i won't be repeating MC coils on my new JKUR.

    What did Brown Santa show up with today..

    Almost forgot. Bought one already and didn't realize they came single. These will go well with my Evo corners.

    2013 Heated passenger mirror failure - 2nd time

    Has anyone run across a passenger mirror failing a 2nd time? I had mine fixed under warranty about a year and a half ago.

    Best 35 R15 Tire?

    I currently run Goodyear MTRs. But, I find they track weird, don't stay balanced very well, and wear weird. So, I'm looking for something else. FWIW, I have a JK not JKU.

    Weld on Sliders - Paint prior or after install?

    I'm looking to get some weld sliders for my 2 door. Most come raw steel. Is it better to paint them prior to install and touch up around the welding or have them mounted then painted? What are you guys using for paint or are you going powder coat?

    Hi from Houston, TX
