Mac10's rubicon JK

It's been a minute.

I'm in the middle of doing a kitchen remodel, so my free time to work on this rig
Isn't as frequent as I would like.

It has enabled me to order more parts though:twisted::twisted::mrgreen:

I ordered more from the 3d printed scale guru Knight Customs.
I was patiently waiting for the grille to become available and I ordered it as soon as he posted it was available.

I've also been trying to not put a set of curries under this rig....

I've bought 2 pairs now, I sold the first set and then tried around and ended up with another set:roll:

I started to mount the grille tonight.

I've been concerned about fitment, because it isn't designed to fit with the vanquish cms mount.

I decided to go ahead and take a shot at it anyway though.


Here you can see that I don't have a ton of room to work with.



Here are the fender liners before I trimmed them.



And after the trim.

I had to make some slight adjustments, but it's going to work out.

I had to cut the condenser out of the core support to get it all to fit correctly.

I have an idea on how to hide the servo coming up this week when I get time to work on it again.

Here it is as of now.






I hope these pics are helpful to someone with the same setup as me.

Thanks.

The quality of the printed parts have far exceeded my expectations.

I can't wait to actually drive the thing now.

I still have to destroy my one wheel center cap in hopes of getting the scale lug nuts off.

Once that is don, I can install the new axles "thumbsup"

I've finally find the time to finish this rig up. (It's amazing what a sick day from work can achieve)

I am now just waiting on new CI foams and some silver beadlock rings to arrive.


Here is how she turned out.

Yeah, and to think I started this adventure wanting a budget build. :lmao:

I would have saved so much time and money had I just bought the rtr version.

Great looking JK! Those fender liners are awesome too, I haven't seen them before. I may have to pick up a set and finally put my Wild Boar style grill that rbgerrish from DSPRO printed out for me on mine!
