Install Putco wiring harness. One of the best mods I've done. I also ordered new Autopal housings and bulbs. Will have to see how much better they will be.

One of my favorite upgrades I've done is my headlights. I used a Putco harness, autopal housings and hella 100/80 watt bulbs. It was very easy to do.

How do you like the Autopal housings? I was going to get the Rampage ones, but decided to go the cheaper route.

The IAT sensor will not cause a no start condition.

Bumper, Slider, Lift, Gas tank Skid, Locker, Off Road lights were all Easy to install mods

But I have access to a Lift and about $115,000 worth Snap on tools to use at work
