Greetings from Jackson County. Me and my friends go off roading often and we are always looking for new trails. We call ourselves the renegade off road crew (name now ruined because of 2015 renegade I know lol)

I'm Garret nice to meet cha. I have a 92 XJ project right now (not running) and I am purchasing a 99 in about a week for my dd.

My old 92


The renegade off road crew


So just stopping in to say hey. Will be making a build thread as soon as I get my xj.

You can follow us on instagram and twitter if you want to see more pics of our jeeps @renegadeoffroad

Anyone else live in the Jackson/banks area?

No its really not. Has 3 good rock climbs but dirt roads from.what I heard. But tellico was that way also till errosion started happening. My dad rode tellico in the 70's . Slick rock was dirt ect. But there are other trails around here. But not much for trailer queens beside Beasley.

I used the Pos Walmart stick solder, never heats up enough and its a terribly impossible an painstakingly long task in itself to get the solder to stick to the led and the wire with a cold solder. I love em, adds flare and cheap lighting to your car, can leave em on all night and never drain your battery. I just need a better solder till I do any again. Plus Walmart sells a short strip 10 bucks. That's only 7 and u get 16 feet.
I'm thinking about adding them under the doors and in the fenders for rock lights. I'm assuming if have to cut the strips and splice wires and such. I do have a good solder gun or whatever so I should be set.

Up to u. U have to cut the strand of led then solder a wire to the spot. Look at the ones at Walmart they are exactly the same. But for rock lights I'd recommend the waterproof because they will short out with water. Its a good deal though. The single pre soldered roll will light up if u touch to a battery. U can use the entire roll if u don't want to solder. Or cut the solder. The u just wire to wiring harness or a switch. All easy stuff. Make it look nice and that a 100 dollar mod u did for 7

I think I'm gonna hold out and buy something nicer. got a couple friends that have this kind of set up and it works great but it's just not bright enough for my liking. I've seen pictures of a kit made by horsepower juice that are extremely bright but their website isn't working for me. I found them on amazon, but I don't want to order them and they never come.

Never had an issue with Amazon, I usually do try and buy from them, and prefer "Prime", even my non-prime stuff is usually here in a few days. Now Poly Performance, that is a totally different story LOL

only reason I don't want to order from there is because the seller is horsepower juice. From what I've read, he's a one man operation and sometime last year all orders went on back order and stuff. haven't heard if he's back making lights or not. heard his brother or something died so he stopped for a while. when I go to his website, it's just a blank white page. I'm thinking he isn't making lights anymore but that his stuff is still listed on amazon
