Default Well yesterday actually

Installed a DEI Ready Remote starter model 24923 on my jeep I got off Ebay for $22.49 shipped...

Soon to install the door actuators for the remote locks....I bought the actuators off Ebay for $12.20 shipped...

If I can figure out how to install them...

I can electrically hook up anything....but as far as hardware ...that's where I have my problems...

Any one have hints, pics are some knowledge on how to put actuators in the doors they may want to share?

Just bought these used rims for a hundred bucks today off Craigslist. Will be mounted up in a couple weeks with new BFG A/T's.
Have to get lift done before getting tires though.

Finally got around to adjusting the upper control arms. The caster is still within specs and the front driveshaft is almost at the perfect angle. It rides soooo much smoother than it was before, especially suprising with 8" of lift and a front locker. Smooth as can be!! Another good day with absolutely no setbacks
