Not every subsystem works.

 

You use

 

SUBSYSTEM=="scsi", ATTRS{model}=="JD FireFly ", SYMLINK+="Lexar%n"

 

I never had any luck with the scsi subsystem.

 

I have been using the following rules depending, mostly, on my mood at the moment. A good karma may help too :-)

 

ACTION="">

 

ACTION="" microSD",SYMLINK+="gps"

 

ACTION="" to ATA/ATAPI Bridge",SYMLINK+="usbext"

 

ACTION="">

 

Notice the use of SUBSYSTEM and SUBSYSTEMS. It was important to use the correct one.

 

Don't forget to reload the rules. I remember I had to run udevadm control --reload-rules but it isn't in the man page any more so things may have changed since then.
