WOW the paint to match on the GenRight bumpers vs leaving them raw aluminum looks fantastic! We've only had a handful of customers paint to match in the silver. So Clean! The weight savings with going aluminum is HUGE, and the approach and departure angles on the bumpers are going to serve you well for you plans for this jeep. This is going to be a beast on the trail. Lets go wheel!

I’m just amazed that you are coming full circle in many ways with your JK. So many versions along the way to where you and it are now. Looking close to stock but super capable. It’s fun to watch and proof that we all evolve.

You know it isn’t ever going to be finished. You can’t leave things alone. Your excitement is so genuine and you seem so appreciative of everything you have. Love your attention to the small details and it shows you actually care about your vehicles. Looks awesome and I bet it performs just as good as it looks.

It's great to see the JK back on the channel. It looks amazing with all the work you've done & I love how it's pretty much all paint matched. It looks so clean & very well done. Can't wait to see you take on some of the more challenging trails.

Brad that build is incredible! I love the stock look with just a few additions to just give it some very clean styling. Im certain that's gonna be a beast on the trail, as a subscriber for a little over a year who went back and watched some from the beginning I love seeing how far this jeep has come! Can't wait to see it get put to the test once again!

I’ve been watching your videos for about two years, and every one has been a look to the future. I love this build, it’s more to my liking (near stock appearance-advanced capabilities ) as your upgrades are well thought out and based on your experiences in the last few years. I want this Jeep!!

Brad, thanks for all the videos you do. I can appreciate how much time it takes to create a video that seems like you have someone else filming when it's actually just you moving the camera over and over and over and over again. You're really talented. I love these videos where it's just you and the trail. And thanks for showing my another great local trail (I'm in University City) to add to my list of trails that I want to do!

Love his attitude about this build. Its not about adding features or cool gimics, its about creating a vehicle that makes him happy. It feels like a more focused build with a clear goal.

Really like this build, Brad. Like many of us who modify our Jeeps you've come full-circle back to a highly practical and functional build, no unnecessary extras or doo-dads. Love the aluminum bumpers and the thought you placed into every detail, and in many cases "stock" is just fine (including the tail lights!) This is a serious build which will be great over the long haul. Love every aspect of it. Enjoy!

Awesome! The day I finished building a drawer system for my 2 door, I realised I preferred the open boot space and the fact that I can chop and change as I go along, and removed it again. Plain and simple is sometimes better 👌🏼

Really looking forward to seen all the adventures with the Jeep, looking like a million bucks!

Great update Brad, quite a bit of mods since we've last seen the JK!

I love the choices you made to minimize weight - aluminum armor, ground tent. I laughed at the “Build is Complete” part of the title because we all know, no build is ever really complete😀

Looking good! Still one of my favourite Jeeps! Looking forward to seeing where you go with this rig as it is VERY capable! And, I like the fact that you are keeping the camping part of it simple!!

This thing is perfect! I love the new and improved OEM+ look so much. Sometimes less is more. Great job on the build Brad! 10/10.

Such a nice build. That is one squared away Jeep. Awesome job Brad. Excited to see this flexing on some challenging terrain. GET SOME !

Absolutely gorgeous. Clean OEM + look. Love your channel. You made wheeling and jeeps look so appealing that I bought a new JL Willys to start my jeep career. So excited to start my overlanding adventures

congrats Brad, I was a follower at the very beginning of the trailrecon channel, 6 years of hardwork of driving\filming\editing, you deserve this

Now, THAT’S what I’m talkin’ about! 100% in looks. Can’t wait to see how it handles the rocks!

Congratulations Brad! The JKU looks amazing. Can’t wait to see off-road videos and the new capabilities!

Doc you definitely outdid yourself this time ! Capable and nicely modded without going overboard !!!

wow! That jeep looks really really good Brad. I did a double take when I saw you standing next too it. It's amazing what happens when you make changes. Enjoy the trails.

Very nice! Love seeing the JK build back and always dig your channel Brad. Thanks for sharing.

Been watching for awhile, love the build and your clean way of thinking when it comes to function first. And you still made it look great!!

Amazing build. I had a JKU 2015 was absolutely in love with it, nice lift, 35s, and the overland rack. I needed a truck, so I traded. Now just two months ago, I'm back in a jeep with a 21 Gladiator Rubicon, and my wife bought a 21, JLU ALTITUDE. The mods will come slow as the funds are slower but that's OK. The more I drive my Gladiator the more I seriously enjoy it! Great Channel, Keep up the good work, enjoy that Amazing 2015 JKU!

Man I live seeing the transformation Brad! Can't wait to see this thing hit the trails.

Man I’ve loved to see you progress. It has to be a great feeling for you to be were you are now in the build.

Great build! I'm excited to see what you do with that! You're not messing around. Those tires are in my top 2 choices for the next replacement.

You painted the top at the right time. Matches your hair! Couldn’t help it. I’m Excited for the upcoming adventures.

This is overlanding video gold. Like the library of Alexandria. All the knowledge we have in one build. I cant wait to see it detailed out. Adressing weight is awesome. Thanks.

Brad, Jeep looks great! I would suggest adding rear skids for the Falcon shocks. I ran the Rubicon with out them. Definitely got road rash and but still worked great. For your 'super capable' Jeep, get the skids. I got them now, very easy install.

Happy to see our products have stood the test of time and continue to help you steer adventure! Jeep is looking great! Nice work!

Recently upgraded myself, glad to know that We have similar taste. Let’s me know my build was done right . Love what you’ve done and look forward to seeing a few trail rides. I have started showing an interest in overlanding, a lot less wear on my body.

Its amazing what you have done with the jk throughout the years, been following your videos for awhile now and its great to watch tge progression, im working on my jl to get to the point i want it to be at, its tough and takes time but the end is always worth the hard work, keep up the great work and hope to one day wheel with you guys 👍

Looks amazing Brad. Was talking with the wife about getting another JK to do exactly what you’re doing with yours. Happy to see it back again!

Got mine done also. 5.5 Metalcloak Game Changer, Falcon 3.3 Adjustables, Tom Woods drive shafts, and countless grocery list of other items. Nice ride. Thanks from MANGO

Very nice Brad. Cool to see you getting back to "basics". Can't wait to see this in action.

Love to see the final product; it’s been so long ! I love your channel! I always come here for info to pass it onto my Jeep 12

Man I am so excited to see this jeep back! It's what got me following the channel! Looks like its headed for greatness. I have been debating on the ProRock44 so thanks for the review! Can't wait to see what comes next.

Brad, I just love your videos; traveling; camping; and especially the equipment.

I have the same long arm Teraflex lift and Falcon shocks. I’d recommend the skid plates for those rear shocks!! I didn’t initially and scratched them a little. Then put on the skids and really beat up the skids on Dusy trail. Glad I put them on.

I enjoy “living” the trails & western coast scenery through your channel. Also, nice looking JEEP upgrades 👍🏼🇺🇸

It’s nice seeing people excited about something they build for themselves. Satisfaction.

Brad, she looks awesome! Looks a lot like my JLUR in fact. Hope you bring her this week. See you Wednesday! 👍👍

What an awesome way to invest in the channel. Your happy and the viewers are too. You hit a home run here! And like you, I can’t wait to see how the upgrades change your trail experience.

I have the falcon 3.3’s as well and would 100% recommend the skid plate they sell for the rear shocks. I know it loses a little clearance but could save a lot of money in the future

I put the JL hood latches on my JK and that's been a great upgrade especially on the high wind freeways

Looks amazing Brad! Glad to see the JK back in rotation!

Looks Amazing Brad!! Happy Wheeling! Look forward to the upcoming videos!

Time for Corral Canyon!!! Your build is exactly the vision I have for my JK. Bravo Zulu

Happy for you, B-man. I have a 2019 JLU with same TeraFlex bumpers, sliders, fenders, shocks, and aluminum tire-carrier -- but the TeraFlex 3" lift instead of the 4". Upgraded to RCV chromoly w/FAD axles, front and rear, plus new Adams drive shafts. Currently loving my KO2 37s, but looking at the KM3 39s. Just a little concerned about taking a huge hit in MPGs, since -- even with 37s -- this little 2.0 turbo cranks our 21 mpg in town and 23 on the highway (65mph). Also, your beadlock wheels aren't legal, on road, in Colorado. Abandoned waiting on the Yukon 5.13s we ordered, when 4 months had passed with no expectation of the gears arrival. Still have the stock 4.11s, but upgraded to Alcon brakes all around. Thanks for all you do, buddy.

I'm in the same boat. All this stuck in the house made me kinda fall off the wagon on building my rig. So far, got new shoes, shocks, air compressor, SPOD and an electric water pump to tie into my AEV rear bumper (with plumbed water tanks) is next on the agenda. Feels good to get back into it! Great video and I really like the direction you are taking with that rig! Noice!!

The build turned out great. Such a clean and classy look. The Dynatrac 44 is on my list too.

Something I just now noticed is that you went to stock hood latches. Nice! I love your appreciation for stock components, too many people just get rid of stock things just because they are stock!

Beautiful! I’m hoping to see so many more trail videos, just like old times!

The all-over silver looks very clean, and really shows off those 39's. Very nice

Beautiful. Excited to see more adventures with the JK.

Definitely looks good. I’d say you’ve made excellent choices on this build. 👍🏼

Excited to see more rock crawling coming to the channel! Brad did you stick with the 4.88s or go to lower gears?

Congrats, Brad. It keeps getting better!

Absolutely love your jeep and really enjoy all of your video's, thank you for all the info you put out!

Awesome! Super pumped about this! The JK looks sweet! Great video again Brad

Hey Brad as a fellow navy vet just want to say ive watched your videos for years now, our jku are pretty different as I took a buggy approach on mine, im only saying this because of all the trial and error I went through, being said that teraflex kit will ride nice on road but offroad has some flaws, the rear lower brackets will get hung up on every break over obstacle I had the synergy kit and my rear brackets were placed further back and i still got hung on everything, second is the super long lower and very short upper bad geometry and will cause bind and rear steer, I kept my front as it works great but have since replaced my rear with rpm steering 3 link rear as it was easiest to install without plasma cutting all my brackets since I welded and reinforced everything, if I did it over I would have gone with hepta rear 4 link both sets brackets are above the frame nothing to catch on rocks, i love dynatrac stuff but the fact their selling a semi float for 7+k and will not give you any locker options except e or arb is pretty bad. Yeah they innovated some tech but its still a semi float and ive ran those 39s (38.5 and 37ish under the weight of a jku) you have for 3 years on my old 44 and granted never bent a flange but have twisted splines but have since upgraded to tera 60s because of the ridiculous deal i got and was able to full float and add hubs on my own as funds permitted yes I do my own work and fab so keeps costs down, im interested in seeing if those sliders will last on hard trails ive personally seem them get destroyed in 1 run down here in the southwest on 7+ rated trails their super light though lol youll love these tires i did until it was obvious aired down their not big enough and jkus on hard trails need 40+ inch tires I still daily mine but have 40 inch kr3 stickies for trail tires 45+k miles on my km3 2 are vulcanized and their chunked and still running good. It would be amazing to wheel with you one day love the content and cant wait to see more

Simply awesome Brad and congratulations!! Many thanks for sharing.

Dammmm. Just looks amazing. I think this will be the best rig to your trip to Alaska. Love it. 🏆🏆🏆

Your Jeep looks fantasic, Brad! Congrats and happy trails!

I can not express how happy this makes me!

Awesome job on your JK, Brad! Have fun!

SWEET!!! Love to see the clean, understated look. And really like the idea of the 60 rear & keeping the 5 lug wheels. I’m curious to see how you’ll like the body-mounted slider after you bang it around for a while. Hollie had to do some pretty significant body work on MischiefmakerJKU when she took off her body-mounts.

Congrats on the upgrades and build! This inspires me. Looks good.

Brad….. I love the color of your JK 😎💪👊. The journey you take me on vicariously is awesome. I don’t get out much. Work, kids, etc 😂. Thanks for giving me an opportunity to get away for a few minuets 😎👊

Brad your “new” ride looks great, looking forward to hearing how everything works… Wish you’d take a trip up to Cerro Gordo with a group to volunteer some time towards the ghost town. Brent could use the help and I’m sure everyone would enjoy the learning experience.

I can’t wait to see you in your restored jeep and Marco’s hemi out in the rocks.

Happy to see this update!!! You guys avoided really discussing front axle strength though. Great axles no doubt but with 39's and extreme trails you are more than maxed out on that 44.. Hopefully you can baby it but keep extra parts on hand for sure..

Yay! Back to Jeep. You lost me there for a while. Let's see how it goes. Matt's Recovery has been my go to lately.

LOVE that rear bumper - nice, enjoy, and be safe!

thats an great build! I'd love to see more about the heated seats. I really want to add them to my rig. Love the channel.

Very clean and the way I prefer my Jeep look as well. When I had my JK I removed the front Jeep grille badge just to keep it clean.

Oh yeah! That is the best Jeep out there. I'm quick to criticize things on most people's builds but damn, your taste in components and looks are right on! I look forward to following your adventures, and having a few of my own.

I’ve seen this video like 5 times now! I love how your jku turned out! It looks amazing man . My jku will look this good one day

Congratulations! Hope to wheel with you guys one day! Our builds are eerily similar, I hope you enjoy the Gen Right bumpers as much as I do. Dana Ultimate 60s and 37s coming next month too🙏🏽 Life is good my friend! Off-roading is ever evolving.

Dream build. Well done without being overdone. Capable and livable.

Congrats 👏 👏 👏. I've always thought this was the direction this jeep should have gone in the first place.

I am loving the new look! I am also very interested to see where you go with the gear you carry and your ground tent camp site setup. I have a SAS 94 Suburban that I am building with a rocklander style as well and carrying the gear, for a family of 6, without adding too much weight on the roof is a challenge.

Brad I would highly recommend you flip those rear Falcons. It’ll keep those resi’s out of the way of rocks and whatever you may encounter on the trail

Appreciate you sharing, love watching your adventure videos they are just super cool, I haven’t gone off Roeding in some years jeep is looking beautiful dude nice job well until the next adventure I will be following

Brad you have provided me with so much camping inspiration Your Jeep WAS identical to mine now seeing yours I want to make similar changes. I love what you've done. Now to get the wife's permission. Pictures and videos to come!

Looks like an awesome build Brad! Hope to see you on the trails someday!

I’m just starting a very similar process on my jku. I’ve been buying parts since May of this year. My Dynatrac Prorock 60’s just came in last week. We are hoping in August to do the Rubicon and fordyce also. Really looking forward to next year and a freshly built jeep. We also bought the TeraFlex alpine long arms and speed bumps. But I opted for MetalCloak 3 1/2 inch springs. We did the same KMC wheels only an eight lug with nitto trail grappler 40s. We ended up going with the same PSE gearbox but also added the Hydro assist. We also I have the same generight bumpers. But I ended up going with nemesis for my fender flares. I also added anti-rocks front and rear I hope I don’t regret that for highway driving. I plan to make a KZfaq video once it’s up in together which should be late January 2022. I love your build and really enjoy your channel.

See ya on the rubicon Brad, next year! I’ve got a jk 08 yellow, like your channel and upgrades for rock lander! Thanks

Hey Brad, I could not suggest enough with switching to SwayLoc from off-road only. I am on 40s and with these front and rear it drives like a nascar. But also as easy as a button to switch to full flex.

This was cool, and the silver wheels works perfect.

Love what you done with the Silver JKUR.

Now it’s a real beast looks way bigger than before for sure…nice work

I love it very nice! I have a 2017 it never ends I tell ya. Just put a spicer dana 44 front with am eaten locker on 37s I regeard it. Such a nice rig took a long time to get this far still lots to do but.

Brad, that grin. You remind me of my daughter on Christmas morning. This is a great video

I’ve missed the JK! Can’t wait to see some trail rides

Love seeing the JK, I run a Jeep JK and I love it.

Brad Silver looks Awesome!!! Look forward to your next adventures!!!!

Cant wait to see you put that Jeep to work!!
