Meh, depends on the quality of rubber. Low-quality rubber will wear out quicker than anything. I doubt that Brown Dog Industries is goin cheap on anything that they do. Give this a read

 

I did a tire rotation today, and being that I didn't have jack stands, I used my full-size spare as a way to keep the Jeep up in the air. Looks funny, if you ask me:



Also, my new Rough Country performance 2.2 steering stabilizer came today. It's really beefy! I got that thing installed today:

 

New anti-sway bar quick disconnects are in!

 

Got the steering wheel aligned, shocks tightened, and joints greased today.

 

Lookin' good mayne!

 

New LED bulbs in the gauge cluster today... can't wait to check it out in the dark.

 

New trailer hitch step makes it easier for me to climb into the back and sit in the back like it's a bench:

 

how much drop... I know your jeep is lifted, but the angle in the picture makes it look like that thing is only a few inches off the ground.

 

It's an 8-inch drop and about 1 foot off of the ground. It makes any trailers that I tow flat, rather than at a steep angle. Obviously, I don't have this on when I'm out offroading, or else it would be a bottoming out point lol.

 

Rear shocks tightened up, and wow there's a whole lot less noise coming from the floor boards.

Greased up all joints too.

I also managed to grab a wireless remote for the winch.

 

Haha... well, yeah I didn't think so. The steps look pretty handy - gotten much use outta them yet?

 

I actually used it just yesterday while tinkering with the backhatch opening mechanism. I think I already got my money's worth!

 

I'm liking these new numbers!

 

Is that a stock over head console?! and how in the hell are you getting 20mpg?!? I only get 18 and I only have 235's!

 

Yeah, it's stock. And today I was getting around 17. It seems that if I am careful accelerating and keep it under 1500 RPMs, I can pull big numbers like these. But since I get excited, I grow lead toes sometimes.

I replaced the speedo gear when I went with bigger tires, so the console isn't too far off.
