Went to the JY today, & snagged some must haves for an up & coming moab run... Seat belts for the 3rd row, ZJ tierod, & HO alternater brackets for the ZJ 134 amp. Alt I got a few months back! I'll get some pics up when I'm done, & maybe a wright-up for us renix 90 amp alternater guys. I really need some extra juice to push; fog lights, rock lights, radio, fan, heater....
Oh & the trail list is; fins-n-things (in the dark), metal masher, moab rim, cliff hanger, & playing Monday by ear!

Got the HO XJ brackets, & ZJ V8 alt. all mounted up BUT...
I ran into this issue, where I have 3 wires on the new alt., but only 2 on my renix! Aside from the single wire that mounts separately (10mm power), gotta figure out the rest of these! (renix- yellow & orange. ZJ- 2 green, 1 large black ground)???
"If you cant fix it with a hammer does that make it an electrical problem???"

Ya I'm sick of having to pick heater, headlights, but no radio. Or rock lights, radio, headlights, but no heater! Lol
Played with the idea of a cap.... alternater swap was cheaper.
