Default Cargo Hooks/Anchors!

I've had my 15" Sub fastened down to the stock cargo hook things since I installed it, but today, I went over a speed bump and I thought I had been shot at! Ripped one of them right out of the floor and didn't do it nicely! I'm just glad it happened with something stupid like this than with all my camping gear or box full of chains, or fluids, when I REALLY needed them to be held down. I installed Eye bolts in better locations and blocked off the old holes, I thought about re-fastening the stock hooks but I didn't want to have anything to do with em after finding out how weak they are!

Tried to work on my cooling issues, broke the thermostat housing almost in half (not too sure really how that happened...thinking it may have been part of the over heating problems though)

Then..

Kicked it in the tire...yelled...and walked away.

Well, not today but yesterday I install some ford explorer wheels. I had to grind the center of the rims to fit my hubs but they are good. A little diff look and makes the wheel kinda stick out more. But either way there were FREE.

After getting my OBA installed last week I figured it was time to run a line to the front of the Jeep for easier access.
