It was very easy to wire. The dash pops right apart. Plenty of room for wiring. I still have room over the speaker for about 4 or 5 more when the need arises. And yes... a lot of switches. But they are all used. left to right: Above speaker(lower bumper, high bumper, stobes front and rear) Left Dash(windshield, rack front, rack left) Right Dash(rack right, rack rear, low rear)

Installed Purejeep formed rockers :clap:

Today, she was shod with BFG Mud Terrain tires.
If it rains soon, (or more preferably, cools off and rains) I'll be able to see whether they improve wet traction over the Goodyears. Apart from the hope for improved wet and offroad traction, it makes the Jeep look less like a minivan. (especially with the homemade stubby showing the tires out front) I can't even believe Chrysler puts those crappy minivan tires on a Jeep. Somebody needs a hard smack in the back of the head. More agressive (i.e. louder) tires would also turn away the soccer moms on the test drive. With the top off, it's kinda tough to compare MPG, but I'll take having the top off. |
Wow I thought I have more lights....
Are you using a heavy duty alternator or a seperate alternator what about dual battry system to cater for those electricals

put on my front tow hooks, got my new tires (285-75/16) rear tow hitch, jeep seat towels, "its a jeep thing..." sticker on the windshield...
next week getting a new Sirius receiver, since i skipped on that feature! |
Installed full traction hydro, energy suspensions bushings, and tested out the flex on my Jeep. Ordered extended Crown brake lines and Rubicon express sway bar end links for additional droop.

You can see there are 10 forward, 2 left, 2 right, 2 rear high. There will be 4 more facing rear very soon. The 4 on the bumper are intended for road use. The other 6 are intended for offroad use. I have changed out the pulley on the alternator for a smaller one. Now is spins faster at idle. My last truck had a 140 alternator and it kept up fine with all of them on with a simple pulley change. If the need arises I will swap out for a high amp alternator. Having only just gotten this going, I haven't tested it out yet for long periods of time. You never know when you may need to light up an area the size of a few football fields:D

First post!! woow.
This past week added a Body Armour front bumper, Rubicon Expres 2" BB, Pro Comp LT315/75/R16 MT 35" with pro comp all black rock crawler rims. Also added a cb. pics to follow once i figure out how. lol |
Woohoo!! More Canadians!!
I went out and bought a Motorola hands free kit for the Jeep. As much as I wanted the u-connect, I couldn't justify the cost. $40 at Costco and I'm all set. And it works surprisingly well with the windows down / off. Haven't tried it with the roof down yet.... |
