Here's the switches I installed for high idle (amber) and aux fan (blue).

The other night the jeep was idling at about 240* then I turned on the aux fan and watched the temp drop 20* in about 30 seconds. Awesome mod!

How do you do the high idle switch? I've been trying to find a write up thread or something with no luck. I like the overhead console looks cleaaaaan.

Here's the write-up i followed: http://emeraldgreen97.wordpress.com/...h-idle-switch/ Probably a bit different for a 96 though.

Did I miss something? Or do you have different axles or something. 5x5.5 is big bore like on a CJ.

The swampers required 5x5.5 bolt pattern so I'm running adapters and don't feel like taking them on and off for switching tires.

Got the new rubber mounted up

Have about 1000 airsoft bb's in each tire to balance them and it rides great! These things feel like nothing compared to the swampers lol I'll throw up some pics tomorrow.
