The Jk Gets some Paracord mods along with a how-to! Getting lost in the garage episode 2.

What happens here

Take a length of paracord (approximately 9 feet per door for a Jeep JK) and thread both ends through the top reinstalled bolt loop. Pull the paracord through until it's centered, forming a loop. Then, begin braiding using the Cobra braid technique (also known as a King Cobra braid). For each stitch, take the paracord strand that is on the 'behind' side, tuck it under the two central strands, and bring the paracord strand from the 'forward' side over the two central strands and through the loop created by the 'behind' paracord. Pull the stitch tight. Alternate sides for each subsequent stitch, ensuring consistent tension. Continue braiding until the desired length for the door limiting strap is achieved, leaving a small tail of paracord at the end.

Goal: Create a custom-length braided paracord door limiting strap.

What they say

So, what we're going to do is we're going to take our two ends. We're going to thread it through here. I'll go this way so you guys can see. Take our two ends. We're going to thread it through here. We're going to pull them through this loop. So, kind of cinches down. See that? And then we're going to come to here. And bam. Now we're going to do our what they call a king cobra or a cobra braid. So once your back is in the back, your forward's always going to be forward. So you're going to tuck it underneath. And then you're going to pull it. Pull it through. Tighten it down. Your back is always in the back and your forward is always forward. So you're going to have this. You're gonna, pull it through. And you're going to do that all the way until you finish this braid. And then you should have a braid here. We're going to go along. I don't know if we're going to reconnect these or not. Might cut them off, but we will see. Then we're going to reattach our power cords. and repeat on all four doors. So, let's get this finished. I'll show you guys what it looks like at the end.
