Hound the Commando Green Rubicon

Time to start a new build thread.

Here is my 08 JKU RedRock that traded in. I loved my Jeep but it developed issues and I need something more reliable. I lost my lift, sliders and Rock Jock 44.

Picked up a 13 Rubicon Unlimited in Commando Green. I don't have a name for it yet but I would like to hear some suggestions from y'all.

At the dealership after they moved my wheels and tires over.

I plan on putting my EVO Quarter Pounder on but will need to do some FAB work since the frame horns were chopped off.

It does have a spacer lift which will need to work for now until I get my Enforcer lift.

Nice! Congrats! :thumb: My sons wanted me to name our Jeep "Hound" (they love the original Transformers). But our Jeep isn't green.

I did a few little mods today.

Added some Daystar hood wranglers to kept the hood from fluttering.

Removed the stock rear bumper and added a Rugged Ridge hitch.

Mounted my CB and ran the coaxial cable. Still need to run power.

Mounted my antenna and Hilift. I know it will change once I add the EVO body mounted tire carrier.

Need to update my signature with build links.

Need to plan a wrench party after I get back from Colorado sometime. Need to trim pinch seams and install my lift.
 
Gussets finally being burned in. I hated driving these past couple weeks without them installed.

Also had to fab some new frame horns to install my Quarter Pounder since they were chopped off to install the Poison Spyder BFH.
