What have you done to your JK this week? 2.5M Views
 

I Installed an AEV Snorkel

I measured this about 10 times before I started... awesome what you can do with just a dremel.

Looking good fellas. Next week i'm getting my floor/boot area Rhino lined! Will post pics, or start a thread for those keen to learn more.

Awesome Caseyg
Did you get the Ram Air Scoop if yes put that one on looks better and keep the cyclonic one for outback driving AEV snorkels are the best in my opinion

Nice work on both vehicles.

Built the template for a rear parcel shelf for the unlimited. Looks awesome even in MDF!!
Will post pics of the finished product soon.

I broke a front universal and the ball joints on the passengers side and bend the crap out of the rear bumper....

gotta see this where are the pics , i know all about breaking balljoints

Number plate mount
 

6mm alloy plate, an led light and a weekend of cursing to replace the long gone factory relocated mount that was attached with wood screws.

I like it! Something different is always great, especially when you know you have done it yourself! Well done mate!

here it is:

4x4 Show was on here at Brisbane, took the opportunity to buy a new UHF and antenna. Did the install this weekend - mounted on the Daystar panel I had bought. Also improvised with the shifter rubber boot, where I broke the plastic guard when I removed the interior for rhino lining... Not bad if I say so myself, $3 worth of silver bolts from Bunnings. Drilled through the original plastic moulded screws which were impossible to take off.

I installed the sPOD and replaced the Daystar lower switch panel.....

Extended front and rear diff breathers. Piss of piss, even a dumb ass like me can do it!!

Had a gut full of bending the numberplate on minor trips so fitted the ARB number plate relocation bracket to the spare wheel.

Also went to the 4wd show and got a Magnum winch. Now I have a project for next Saturday :-)

Also ordered a AEV snorkel from Jeepkonnection but not brave enough to fit it. Have a panel beater mate who will do the cutting during the week.

Running a bit late these were done the week before

- sintered bronze filters for diff breathers

- a fire extingisher (for burning jk's :) )

aussiebum what kind of breather are they? is this a new bracker u made also...

The breathers are sintered bronze filters with a 1/4" thread

and the bracket is a 1/4" manifold with 4 inlets/outlets

I got them all from a pneumatic shop near the coburg drive-in

the filters allow air to flow though easily but not water.

most diff breather kits on the market use the little blue air silencers (also from a pneumatic supplier )

the 2 x filters, 2 x 9mm airline stems and manifold cost me under $30.

This is what i've been up to over the last couple of days

Just got to carpet it and create some proper anchors/restraints. Just finished this tonight and it pumps HARD!

Yes I built the box myself. It took me 2 days to do it properly but it's a darn side better than the stock sub and it doesn't take up much more room considering the size.

I went for quality gear here as I wanted clean punching bass.

Installed the 3 x NARVA Blue 175's on the Rugged Ridge light bar I got from Phil. They're no Lightforce but for the price they are damn good spotlights.

I like it. The 3 lights in the front really look good.

Got some AEV goodness & spotties :D

I think this the first white JK i have seen here for a long time. Looks really cool

Didnt you know?...white jeeps are reserved for 'special' people :p

looks good, a white 4d jk with AEV front bar, can't do much better for a basically stock car :)

i dont get it

Special People

I also have a stone white unlimited rubicon , which looks sweet with a OME 2" lift ( nearly 4" ) front and rear ARB bars ( done thursday ) and am proud of it being white . I am taking it on the birdsville-strezlekie tracks at easter and will post pics .

hooroo

Youre not supposed to as youre not a member of the Stone White club ;)

Looking forward to your pics Stumpy.

i dont do clubs

Hmmm Stone White :)

So far this week I have treated my JK to a new front passengers side axle, upper and lower ball joints and a new front drive shaft.

I also stuck on the new Rego label and replaced the broken Navman power cable.

Greg

We need pictures.... why did you replace ur front driveshaft and what did u replace it with.

The front axle, drive shaft and ball joints were replaced under warranty when I damaged them. Don't know why they did the drive shaft. I blew out the axle universal joint and split the ball joints.

I was not going to argue with them though...replace what ever you want...

Greetings all
Just done the 20,000k services and the dealer has finally ordered a new diesel filler for my car. I m one of the lucky crd owners with a petrol filler neck. You guys think you have a slow fill issues try filling when you cant fit the nossel in. and you in a hurry lol.
Von Dep

Mike,...I've got a petrol filler neck too!!
Diesel pump won't fit in ??
I might have to give you a call to find out more mate !!
JJ

Gday Jon mate, If you have a petrol filler them its a warranty job I went to Ireland on monday and They have ordered a new one at last I've have told them 3 times . Tell them to measure it and they will know its wrong.
cheers Darth vader

I did this little softtop modification over the weekend :)

http://www.ausjeepoffroad.com/forum/...ad.php?t=85262

I have the same light setup but on an ARB bar and if I was buying a bar right now, the rugged ridge is actually what I'd get instead.

Did you use 2 spot and 1 wide or 2 wide and one spot?

There you go a teaser, the rest are in the thread :)

Attachment 31840

Dude. That looks so good tell me more, what paint did you use?
Does it go better offroad with all the mods?
You and Wooders are true JEEP Gods.

I used two wide on the outsides and one spot in the middle.

Throws a good light pattern. I'm more interested on seeing what is going on on the side of the road rather than what's 1km down the road.

Though I'd post up some better pictures of the lightbar and also the finished (carpeted) subwoofer box.
