Hooked up the rest of my LEDs today 2 strips under the front of the back seats and then made up a 12 led plate for the rear gate. Have all Blue LED's inside now, dome light (12), rear dome (12), map light's 4 X2 , 2 12" strips under dash for feet, 2 12" strips under rear seats. Have them all turn on with the acc switch for the door light's.

Default Radio tweaks!

I installed the JVC KD-X210 a few months ago, and today I secured the connectors better (put in butt connectors).

Does anyone need an original factory 6-disc cd changer? Some of the paint has been worn off, but it's in decent shape otherwise.

If you're local -- I could do cash &

Just drove it all weekend. It feels good to be able to say that after it being down for so long with the SAS project! My buddy also used it to take pics and video for a project for my father in law. He was easily able to get above all the cars in the lot for the pics he needed and yes he's like 6'7" lol! I'll have an urban wheeling pic or two from the excursion as well.

Not very exciting, but I did rear brake pads and rotors. Rotors were completely shot... rusty and pitted, probably from winter salt. Right rear caliper was stuck and bleeder valve wouldn't open no matter what I tried.

Pads, rotors and one rebuilt caliper later, brakes work much better!

Backing plates are next, but at least the brakes are up to snuff...

havent fixed anything, but i did break it!! had some decent storms over the weekend and took it out with some guys from work on lunch break monday and got it stuck pretty good. had to be pulled out. ended up breaking my rear sway bar links (now to fab some quick disconnects for it) and busted both front cv axle boots. also felt like the front end was going to fall out from under it when driving back to the shop, found half the wheel inside caked with mud about 2 inches thick.

now time for a body lift (already have t-bar crank and shackles), cut the fenders, and 33" mud tires so hopefully will not happen again
