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

[Jeep To Be]

More done!
Fitted a pair of Dually lights to replace the rather anemic original fogs.
The ones I put in are Dually Spots and I'll will see how they work out. If they are too "spotty" I have a pair of D2 Driving beams which seem to have a wider spread than the normal Dually driving lights.
I'm not looking to use them as fogs, just additional front lighting.

[Jeep To Be]

Fitted 2 Vector Off Road UFO's to replace the windscreen rubbers.
Bloody expensive, but what the hell.

As for me, just finished installing some 2.5in tapered SS Flexy springs and Bilstien 5100's. Very happy with the results but boy were those front ones tough to get in!! They were around 4 to 5 inches longer than the springs I pulled out, but resulted in exactly the same final height (around 600mm wheel centre to bottom lip of the guard)

as per what instructions?

Hey guys!!!!!! to fix hood flutter first open your hood, secondly remove the spring from the hood, thirdly crack a beer close you hood and call it a day! so simple only makes the hood slightly harder to open but im sure you will live free and effective and you dont have to cruise around with cable ties on your car lol

So what is the solution to this? i was looking at these Hood latches as well. I have already had my rubber latches replaced by Jeep with the new 2012 ones, firmer stiffer rubber, but my bonnet still flutters at a frightening rate on the highway when passing trucks. I frequently travel down the New England, so this is a BIG problem for me.

thats a much cheaper option.. lol. i needed a locked hood as well as to reduce flutter, but still
