Thanks!

Here are a few shots of the slabs on the carrier with the Caddy. Something to note is with the additional backspacing, you will have to get creative to get the tire pressure mounted against the carrier tubes. If you scroll up a few posts, you'll see my solution and it definitely holds the 120lb+ tire/wheel very solidly.

Hope this helps!

Awesome! Thanks!
 
Great build and great looking Jeep. I still love the look of the AEV full width bumper. Best looking bumper IMO if you're keeping stock fenders.

Thanks! I've been a big fan of the bumpers. Their fit and finish is perfect and really compliments the factory fenders nicely.
 
Time for a busy day in the garage!

Good luck, looks good.
 
I hate wiring!! That would be a busy 2 days in the garage for me! Good luck, enjoy a beer when your done, or earlier.:beer:
 
Got a handful of things on my list done today.

* Both diffs got inspected and serviced with 85w140 Royal Purple. Everything looked great with no metal flakes or chips in the oil.

* sPod went in along with the OTRATTW switches. For anyone needing custom switches, Jim at OTRATTW is great and truly understand the meaning of customer service. I'm lucky to work just down the street from him and was able to visit his shop. Big thumbs up!

Much mo betta!

Also installed a new set of Synergy Trackbar bushings. For some reason, the old bushings wore out in 11,000mi. They were replaced under warranty, however, a bit of a pain in the ass.

Not necessarily specific to the build, but I finally got around to creating a method for tracking service/maintenance on both my Jeep and the wife's van. Used Google Forms to create simple form that can be filled out each time I wrench on the vehicles. The main reason for doing this is so I have a reasonable record of maintenance in case I ever need to deal with a warranty claim. Also helps keep me in check with all the maintenance required on these things! :thumb:

 
Took a nice road trip to NE. California to a friend's cabin this weekend. What's better than a weekend with good friends, shooting, wheeling and cabin camping? :)
