Re: The Rubber Ducky TJ Build
 

Mate, what a sexy looking TJ from stock, love the yellow. Overhead console looks great, nice phat speaker above your head ;-)

Sent from my HTC One XL using Aussie Jeep Offroad mobile app

cheers bud :) i wasn't a fan of the yellow at first but now i wouldn't have any other colour

Awesome looking build and some great ideas mate, definitelty keen to hear how the dual battery tray works out as I'm looking at doing one on my own TJ.

Have you gone with the one that mounts in original position and requires optima batteries to be mounted on their sides? or is there another option I haven't been able to find?

yeh its the smittybilt one that needs optimas :wall: it was second hand and thrown in to make a deal on a winch tray a bit sweeter so i went for it without much thought and didn't realise it needed the optimas…. oh well, by the time i get two batteries, ill probably upgrade to a yellow and a red top. in the meantime there are more pressing issues that require my money... like a lift!!!

a few of us got together and got my mate a bull bar for his 2 day old jeep renegade last weekend. I've had my jeep 3 years and i still haven't got a front bar on mine yet! :cry: but anyway, the plan was to go Warn, but got to the shop and there was going to be a 2month wait at least, seeing as the blokes birthday was the next day we had to rethink… ended up seeing an OR-fab bar on display and it looked really nice, looked really solid, and had all the goods (winch plate, recovery, light tabs etc) and even a sort of built in bash plate, oh and it was american made so we grabbed that and he absolutely loved it!

helped him put it on that day, the only thing that i didn't like was that it required some very minor trimming to some over hanging metal on (now i've got no idea what its called) a sort of second chassis bar, just below the front bar mounting points. anyway, was easy fixed but just didnt make any sense to me….

so if anybody is looking for a good JK bumper, go the OR-fab


EDIT: writing this i have just realised why the cutting is required haha… its to keep the bottom lip of the bash plate flat against that bottom bar so that it doesn't bend or dent if hit :D
