It's been a while since I last updated this. I've done some small things over the past couple months. First thing, I don't think I ever posted up the engine bay all put together.
I put on some rigid backup lights based on somebody's experience here and I have to say they are pretty damn bright. I pulled the bumper and mounted the licence plate to the frame cross member so I had to get creative with the reverse light mounts.
I found a Rubicon sway bar on eBay and got a no limits actuator for it.
Spent a lot of time trying to decide where I wanted my shift switch. Then I started pulling panels and found really the only place that had enough room for it.
My old factory foam steering wheel was in pretty rough shape so I looked at the Jeep options and it was not just too expensive but it was insane what they want for a steering wheel that has no electronics in it. So I turned to searching the interwebs and found a leather wheel for a TP cruiser that was under $100. The color is not perfect but it doesn't disintegrate in my hand every time I drive so it's a step up.
Last week I got an EVO drag link flip kit and ditched the drop pitman arm and track bar drop bracket.
The worst part of the install was breaking my ratchet handle off and tearing up my hand.
I think that sums up any progress made. It's coming along but we got so much damn snow this year that Lord only knows when the trails will open.
