Getting Legal: Converting a Jeep Wrangler to European Spec

Bringing a US-made vehicle to Europe can be an awesome way to explore and travel, but if you plan to register your vehicle in a foreign country, you need to be prepared to make modifications in order to make the vehicle comply with safety laws in that country. Today we’re documenting what it took to modify our 2019 Jeep JL Wrangler to European spec - specifically to pass the Ministry of Transportation (MOT) inspection process in the United Kingdom. I couldn’t possibly hope to capture every modification needed for every vehicle, so this is really aimed at those of you with Jeep JL Wranglers that are US spec.

ARB Intensity Solis LED Light Preview & Jeep JL Install

Debating the best performance driving light is like debating politics. Everyone has an opinion, everyone knows their opinion is the correct one, and no one wants to stop talking long enough to consider something else. Knowing that, I’m not going to try and claim these are the best performance lights on the market, nor am I going to try and compare these lights to other options on the market. Instead, I’ll offer a preview of my experience with these lights, as well as some instructions for installing them into a Jeep JL.

Onboard Air with Innovative JK Products & ARB

I finally broke down and decided that it was time to install an onboard air system for my 2019 Jeep JL Rubicon. I normally air down (deflate) the tires to around 20psi when I’m on the local Virginia trails to improve traction, ride quality, and tire effectiveness; however, refilling the tires back to the 37psi recommended for my current setup was always a chore.

Installing the Rhino Rack Sunseeker Awning

Take one overland camping trip out in a downpour and you’ll understand the appeal of a roof-mounted awning. At least, that’s what it took before I appreciated that getting an awning for my setup was going to be high on the list for future upgrades.
