No I had a giant Zip Tie there that was holding the E-brake cable. I cut it off to make more room for installing the shock. The zip tie covered an area while I painted the axle.

In case anyone is interested, my mirror lights setup is available for sale now in the Classifieds thread. The funds from that will be fueling some BDS long arms for my build as I continue moving away from Rough Country.

Everything is plug and play and you get EVERYTHING you need to install and get them working:

Today in a junk yard run, I scored a set of four-tone horns from a 1999 Cadillac Deville.

I wired them into the Jeep today and it sounds like a small semi. It's a great American horn sound.

I'll have pictures tomorrow!

I'll have to get a video when I am able, but here is a better picture of the mounting:



Also, I found some pretty rare 97+ Mopar mud flaps. I took them just because:

Sick jeep man. I just ordered the same bumper and stinger from roughcountry that you have. Did you upgrade your D rings? (Forgive me for not reading through all 51 pages of this yet :P)

Also, we want to hear your horn!!!!!!!!!!

A complete coolant power flush seems to have fixed my temperature woes permanently. I finally have alien blood instead of mud:




Also, a new Moog tie rod end for the pitman arm and drag link to fix some slop in my steering:



Will get a video of the horns soon for you guys.
