Either is driving without mirrors.... ;)
Also, I believe that most, if not all, of the aftermarket ones are designed to be DOT compliant and flash amber.
The great thing about the forum is I learn something new every day. I can see the tubes on the axle housing deflecting so I have added trusses for that but I would like to know more about cast differential housing deflection if anyone has time to elaborate.
The primary purpose of the HD dif cover is to be thick enough to prevent the bottom lip from bending when hitting a rock. If the bottom lip is protected by a skid, the thicker lip is unnecessary overkill. If someone is able to impact the face of their dif and wants extra protection that way...
My dif skids look just like that and my original covers are fine. Since I already have the skids for dif protection, I put the dif cover $$ into shock tower skids.
George Washingtons are “eligible.” The number eligible doesn’t mean the number of winners. Or does it? A lot of articles are speculating 100 winners but since the U.S. will never win the WC, we will never know. 😂

Stay away!
1) 2018 = first year of the JL and along with that comes some bugs (including electrical issues and bad frame welds).
2) that is a lot of rust for $22K
3) the corrosion under the paint will only continue to grow and flake off.
Recommendation: as a 1st Jeep with a budget under...
To a certain extent. You can also look up your build sheet using your VIN on a site like this: https://www.iseecars.com/build-sheet/jeep
You can get your manufacture date on the sticker inside your door frame.
