Sorry I've been MIA. I was just going to wire them up to come on with the reverse lights. (My husband was I mean, he's the electrician.)

Recently upgraded my cluster lights to LEDs. While in there I figured out why my gear tree wasn't working. Got the front trim piece switched for a black one. Got the interior "courtesy lights" installed, pulled the bench seat and ripped up the old vinyl floor. The driver's side looks so good but the passenger side is rough. Deciding now if I should buy the equipment and try to learn to do it myself or if I should take it somewhere that knows what they're doing. It definitely could be worse. Got the new windshield installed 2 weeks ago and they said the pinch welds looked clean. I've got no leaks so far. Installed new arms and blades. Currently still waiting on my dirtbound front bumper and my weather stripping kit. Also have a new regulator for the driver window to install. The gear worm is half gone so my window only rolls half way down. Also replaced my oh $#!& handle.

Making a run south to West Palm to pick up these bars this weekend.

that's going to look great. I think someone on here builds reproduction brackets

[DaffodilRex]

I'm going to get them powder coated but I threw them in this morning just to get an idea. I think they look pretty good. They'll look better once she's lifted a bit and they are cleaned up and powder coated. I'm happy with it.  Ignore the bench seat in the back, I'm still working on the interior 😄

[Pete M]

yup, that's going to be a sweet addition.

My dirtbound offroad front bumper came in today!! Dropping it off to be powder coated tomorrow 

[JMO413]

That is going to look Good!

[MiNi Beast]

I got a quote to do the front and rear bumper and the roll bar all together. Dropping them off Monday.

Got the front and rear dirtbound bumpers back from powder coating and mounted. Waiting on the roll bars. Gonna mount those and get started on the floor pan next weekend. On the hunt for a winch now. Gotta figure out what I want to go with. 

[Pete M]

[MiNi Beast]

[Jesse J]

those looks sweet. can't wait for that roll bar to be mounted

[DaffodilRex]

Got my roll bars back! Mounting them this weekend. Also going to install the new cluster which should fix my gas gauge issue as well as my gear tree. 

[Jesse J]

can't wait to see it!

[DaffodilRex]

Got the roll bar in today, and the lights wired on the rear bumper. They're connected to my reverse lights. Tail lights aren't back in yet. I'm refinishing and painting them while they're out.

[MiNi Beast]

Thank you! I'm happy with how it's going so far.

I've done a bunch and haven't posted much. Had a big hole in the floor on the passenger side. Got a new windshield, got the floor patched and coated in POR15. New carpet is in. I ordered a 4.5 inch lift kit from zone off road that just shipped. Replacing the oil pan and gasket this weekend. Got all the weather stripping removed and replaced and replace both manual window regulators. I also refinished and painted my tail lights and mounted a new smitty built winch
