I will be posting pics and yes I will be using the led fog lights. I've spent enough money without buying new fog lights!
That is average from when it was built. Try resetting it after each tank fill. Also watch the actual MPG while driving. If you are stock and actually averaging 11 something is wrong or you have been driving the entire time in 4Lo.I'm averaging 11 or somethingIt's got power I like using it
They look to be side steps to be able to access the roof/roof rack easier
Yes they have steps that fold down and also double as a beer bottle opener =)
Super easy to install. Wipe down the sill w/ included alcohol wipes, peel off the tape cover, measure (or eyeball), and slap em on. I like them, they add some nice accent with the SS, but they definitely don't protect as much as it looks like the plastic ones do. From what I've seen online, the plastic ones also have a vertical component that provides additional protection.
Awesome Job programming it, can you share your cad file? I have solidworks?Today my winch arrived, and I got a good look at the fairlead. It looked like a pile of hot garbage. It's die cast, not properly cleaned up, and then plated with something. No real reason for the cast aluminum to be plated instead of just polished. Had no idea it wasn't polished until I started sanding it to try to clean off some of the ugly casting bubbles and the plating started to come off. At that point I was faced with coming up with a new one, or completely sanding the plating off of the entire part. So, since I have a CNC mill, I broke out the calipers and started designing a new one to make tomorrow (or maybe monday by the time my material gets here). I liked the shape of the Warn one, so I kept that, but I figured since I'm making it from scratch I may as well change the text. You'll have to pardon all of the extra lines. That's the way all of the rounded corners blend together, and if I don't turn the lines on the text is barely visible.
This may seem a bit excessive for something that's going on my Jeep, but honestly I can't stand lazy fabrication. The fact that I could look at the front of the part and tell it was poorly die cast really bugged me. If the surface had been smoothed out properly, I would have been fine. I even tried to save it, only to find out that the silver aluminum was plated with a silver plating. That's one of my least favorite things ever. Clear/grey/silver coatings on aluminum.
yes... that simple , I notice just how much in a car wash , and with conversation. in the Jeep. you will notice windshield noise more because it is less noisy.
