+2 I ordered a leather one from redline, high quality boot. Only regret was not getting red stitching, but I’ll live. Took a bit of time to arrive.
Put my hitch rack together and tried it for fit.
If you are wondering we have to have auxiliary plates with lights in Western Australia and also plates must be in the centre so speed cameras can get ya
Just waiting for my tire bag now.

Installed my rocker covers, new mats and seat covers.
I get my trash bag in a day or 2, I am lining mine with "Core flute" to keep it looking Packed n Neat (OCD lol ) why is nobody making a supplementary frame that hooks over the tire to help the strap weight down force? maybe my project it seems,
That is such a pain to do all that extra for a basket. Random question. Do you know who Andrew St Pierre White is? He also lives in Perth and I watch all his stuff on Youtube. He's a really knowledgeable of roader and would love to see his opinions of our tj's since I know they are rare down there.Put my hitch rack together and tried it for fit.

Installed 1" seat spacers and painted the rings and housings on my halogen light bar up top. Gotta do the actual bar next week.
Once I put my V8 in last winter. In the summer it was like another 4 heats vents in the jeep. My wife hated it, and she loves the heat hahah
Been busy myself. HD steering upgrade, Black Magic pads and centric rotors, KC Apollo spot lights, synthetic winch line and changed the wheels to black.
Did some half door maintenance. Put in new door locks (I didn’t have keys to the locks that were in there and my attempt to rekey failed), some new weather stripping, and replaced the driver side door handle as well as painted them both with fresh paint. Got the idea on this forum to disconnect the rod that allows the door locks to work from the inside. So the only way to unlock the doors is using the key. Hopefully this will make it much tougher for sticky fingers from walking away with my half doors.
Took it for a shakedown cruise with my BiL, and niece & nephew after installing the lift yesterday. Worked well. Nothing real exciting. Didn’t even have to use the new sway quick disconnects.
Refinished the rim I picked up for my spare to match the other 4. After over a year of searching, I found one but it's the version that came with factory powder coated accents.
Having a wheel refurbishing shop remove the powder coating and refinish to match the others was going to cost half as much as buying a whole new set of wheels.
I considered using various products to remove the coating myself but the bare aluminum areas would still need to be either painted or coated.
I decided, instead, to try plastidip on the accents.
The wheels I wanted to match

Prepped
The finished product
I also assembled and hung my 'Jeep cabinet and baskets' my awesome wife got me for Christmas...'cause Jeep stuff need its own place!'

Glad you made it through the virus, and good job on the mods. I can't help you on your question, except that I suggest you start a new thread. I am certain you will get a lot more attention from those that know.

I’m not doing anything in my TJ anymore since I’m working from home. I use our other vehicle (lease up in July) for all my vehicle needs to keep the miles down on the jeep, plus I’m way overdue on the timing belt so don’t want to risk it.
I feel like my TJ is my fun weekend vehicle now rather than my daily. Only taking it out when it’s sunny

I just got these off a 2021 JL with less than 500 miles on them for $750. These LT285/70R17s will be replacing my LT265/75R17s. They should look good on the TJR.

The "StreetRays" 1-1/4" seat riser kit was installed today. The only negative is that the washers are too small on the three smaller diameter bolts - they barely cover the holes in the seat rails. I'll get some larger washers at Ace tomorrow - otherwise, this kit is GTG, American sourced 8.8 hardware, machined aluminum blocks, etc.
Upper and lower ball joints, Black Magic Big Brakes.
