That is pretty cool. Where did you find those D-Rings?

The D-Rings came from either homedepot or tracktor supply. Or maybe harbor freight, don't remember. They are mounted to metal though, I do remember that.

From Walmart. They are wired into the rear overhead light which now has an LED light (something like this http://www.ebay.com/itm/4Pcs-Car-Dom...3D222379853082) in it too.

this is a solid idea... love it! my 2 door is an old Police Interceptor so the front interior lights didn't make it through the cage etc that used to be in it. I've been looking for a solution and this is perfect!! stealing it. haha

Congrats on finding a two door police interceptor, cool. Rare Cherokee. I see you have NY listed as home. I'm a part time up-state person myself. Adirondack State Park.

thanks man... I'll get some pics of it soon. 6.5" IRO long arm, 17" pro comps, 33x12.5 Maxxis Big Horns... it's looking good. Just need to brush up the small things like this.

I actually live in PA now, more of a technicality than anything because the state line is less than 2 miles from me. (haha) needed a solution for living in NY, working in PA... 2 states worth of taxes... started cutting into the Jeep fund.

I was thinking about the Maxxis tires but went cheap with the Goodrich. At some point I'd like long arms but I have a cross member issue and would need a custom length long arm. Looking forward to seeing it. (I thought I had posted this response last night, must have missed the submit button.) Edit: Forgot to mention the front foot well lights, mine are still the stock lights not LED and now that looks odd. I'll change those to LED when I can find an inexpensive option.

A fellow Forum person asked a wiring question, this pic goes with the PM response.
