Rock Lights etc.

Got some rock lights finally, its been on my to-do list for a while. i need to redo the passenger side because apparently more expensive lights are dimmer than the cheapo ones from walmart

got my new header panel on too, new head light and new grill. the driverside headlight is probably next and i need to aim them still.

i figured the front ones were useless for now (infront of the front tires), it saved me $20 bucks, i'll probably do some up front later on for a spotter

Love the truck, dude!

Do you happen to have a writeup of the wiring for those lights?

Great sunset shots, too.

i broke one of my hella's a while ago so i just extended the power wires and grounded the lights on the body, thats how i know the ones on the pass. side suck, its not the lack of power because they would all be dim i would think because they are all on the same circuit

Thanks

yep its an old bunker, me and my friends have found 2.. if i had more money for gas so i could spend an entire day up there i would go look for more, google maps is basically useless because you cant zoom in far enough and the top of them is usually rocks and dirt

i hold the wheel at about a 45º angle to the right to go straight... its alignment is fawked, that and when the coils get soft, which they are.. AGAIN the camber goes to ****

if walmart hires me its only a matter of time.
im also kinda thinking about just running 2wd locked/spooled and just saving and buying stuff for the SAS, im pretty capable with 1wd, 2wd should be so much better.. but nothing will compare to the 3wd i had lol

i need to buy my friend a new hood, head light, grill turn signal and maybe a bumper, then another friend a new fly rod.

then i need new gears, master bearing set, master install kit, what ever i need to actually make the Aussie function correctly... so maybe $400? the front basically spooled was nice but annoying at the same time..

then i need to get the jeep drive shaft balanced so the same thing doesnt happen again so another $100 maybe

within a month, i'm hopefully going to be able to build a cage in my next class so the BL will have to be off for that.

i really need to cut the fenders now, you can hear the tires rubbing on them in the video
