Napalm's NEW 2014 Jeep JKU Sport Picture diary/Build thread!

Now that my wheels are done.. Trying to decide if the 2 inch level and sway bar disconnects or if I should go with a bumper and winch.. Help! ImageUploadedByWAYALIFE1405694567.536606.jpg

Bumper and winch. Also skids if you don't already have them. Recovery gear and skids are a must, even for stock to fully built jeeps! Wheels look great by the way!
 
Great looking build Napalm, looks like we started the same way. I bought a 2013 Sport a month ago..not brand new but way nicer than I really NEED. My first mod was 10th Anniv. Rubi Wheel/Tire take-offs as well. Also really digging the pictures. I like to think I'm a little bit of a amateur photographer myself. I love all the drama in some of the shots, its one of my favorite effects.

But in my humble opinion get the altitude right then add the recovery gear.

Can't wait to see where it goes from here.

Top picture is day 2..bottom picture is day 7
And of course the obligatory lady standing out of the jeep....of course it's my beautiful wife.

I think the only thing I am good at is photographing my JKU... But that's okay with me!! Haha.

X2! When these wheels first came out for the rubi's in 13 the internet exploded and everyone hated them. I was excited when they came on my 13 rubi and thought, and still do, that they looked great! Get used to being at the pump :crazyeyes:

Thank you sir! I very much love em!!! Happy I decided to pick some up. I'll probably run them for the next few years. ATX Chamber pros ain't cheap... :(
 
I've decided on an EVO Quarter Pounder with a stinger for the front end.. Hopefully I will be ordering by the end of the month!

Agreed! I can't wait to order mine. Are you going to go with steel or aluminum? I'm thinking aluminum with the steel stinger.

I'll go with steel because it's more in the budget. Love the look of the aluminum though.. If you've got the cash... I'd say go for it! Looks awesome!
