X2 on this. Its odd at first but you will get used to it. Just expect lots of tire chirping on slow sharp turns (parking lots mainly). Cruising down the highway, you will never even know its there.

Nice Jeep BTW!

 

Good thing I have a subaru as my other DD! Derek is more for like when it rains and I know there is mud on the way to work lmao or weekend windows down cruising

Thanks man!

Thanks for the support guys. Fastenal wouldve shipping it today but they dont have any tracking so I just assume it went out today. Hopefully it'll be here within a week or so!

 

If you were the one that set up the shipping, email the person that sent you the quote form and they'll provide you with shipping updates. I didn't receive any tacking info from them but the woman that helped me seemed more than willing to give me updates whenever I asked.

 

Ill give it a try tomorrow!


So I had my onewaylight trunk LED go out so I emailed them and they are sending me a full replacement set for free! Jason was very nice and Im glad I emailed!

 

Good news guys! I emailed Fastenal and they said the truck arrived in Georgia today! hopefully it'll be here by Friday! Ill email again tomorrow to see where it stops. Im currently trying to plan out my axles builds as I want to be as **** as possible while they are out when it comes to upgrading/replacing old parts as I can

 

Couldn't resist.

 

Lmao I was debating between calling the thread magnum or ferrari!

Fastenal had some delays and now the truck just left georgia today but its on its way to florida. Hopefully the panhandle. Surely itll be here next week!

 

Small updates:

OneWayLight replacements came


There are some updates to the lights. They seem to be less harsh and white and softer but still bright.

New vs Old


Old vs New


Stuffed a pool noodle into my front body to keep mud from getting into my doors





Also, anyone know what the heck this is? Its a mini button under my driver side panels

 

Have you tried pressing the button?

If nothing, I would trace it and take it out. Whoever wired that shouldn't be allowed to wire things.

 

Lulz i pressed it and nothing exploded so i figure its not a self destruct

 

I didn't know you were in the sun-shines-way-too-much state!

 

I'm close! I'm in southern Mississippi so a couple hours from Pensacola

 

Today's festivities can only be described as "Well that escalated quickly"

GF is leaving for a week long cruise today so I figured I would take a look at my driver side speaker since I just installed new ones and it stopped working the other day. Anyway, opened the door and fiddled around with it and saw nothing abnormal so I opened up the radio face and again, nothing abnormal. Plugged everything back in and it worked. Not gonna look a gift horse in the mouth so I just put everything back together. While I was down there, I realized that I had some rust on the mount of the driver side seat and I figured Id just remove the seat and scrape it off



While I had the seat out I found like $3.50 under the carpet!



Then I was worried that maybe there was more rust, and again I have the week to myself so I decided to go bananas.



Was definitely pleased with the lack of rust, although there were some places with some spotting.





I also found what I can only describe as perhaps kitty litter?



Also this was a major bummer (yes you can see through to the tire lol)



Im open to suggestions as to what to accomplish while Im in here! Im thinking laying down some chassis saver and cleaning the carpet of course. Not sure what to do about the hole in the rear quarter panel though...

 

This stuff does not want to come up!

 

Ah! Yup, not too terribly far.

This, but also the epitome of "I was left unsupervised."

Heeeeeyyyyy there, fella.... why are you trying to remove the sound deadening? Those little panels are there to absorb sound vibrations and deaden it up a little bit. You coulda just put POR15 or Chasis Saver right over top of them after etching them.
