I did them on mine. Hood stays rock solid all the way to 90.
The downside I see is the metal part of the latch often doesn't stay open, and gets under the hood when you shut it. Then you have to pull the center latch to lift it enough to get them out. It's a PITA when it does, but you get used to it soon enough.

The rugged ridge ones have been rock solid on mine . Loctite the nuts and they haven’t moved at all in 35k

I don't know if I'd go to the trouble of putting them on to begin with, but since they're already on I don't think I'd go to the trouble of taking them off. They do work pretty slick.
Badass Jeep BTW. Gonna need an Eddie garage pretty soon

I have the rugged ridge ones on the other two Jeeps. Wanted to try something different.

I wouldn’t say it was trouble to get them one. It was no harder than any other hood latch. They just bolted right up.

:crazyeyes: LOL, I assumed you bought the Jeep with the new latches already installed and were debating whether or not you liked them. I didn't realize that you installed them yourself.

Tuffy deck back installed.
And installed some rear seat recliners. They are so much nicer than factory.

What did you use for the rear seat recliners. A kit like most or did you just fab something up?

A kit. We have it in the 2017 and it’s been great. It was a pain in the dick in this one with the tuffy deck but I got it to work. They have different kits (plastic and steel) we have the steel in the 2017 with no issues. I got the plastic for this one to try it and they seem pretty solid.

Awesome. I’ve been meaning to get some being that we’ve got kids with one still in a car seat which makes road trips a bit uncomfortable for them.

It’s way more comfortable. For people and for the dog.

There’s 2 reasons we only sell SwitchPros. They’re American made, and they’re easy to install. Did you get the overhead mount?
