Yeah good point. Okay, the Jeep is getting Rough Country TJ BPEs in the rear then!

 

These are another good options as well.... and they support small-business instead of corporate companys that farm out their work.

I ordered those a few days ago actually, I had welded in the sway bar bpe the wrong way like the bolt holes go and the binding I don't like so in redoing it.

Also the detours ones don't actually delete the bar pin which makes them kind of crappy. One of the benefits of bpe is to get rid of the bar pin that the shock csn move on and put tension on the bushing to make them last longer.

 

Just hoping the BPEs will help reduce that awful rubber noise under the floorboards when I go offroading or hit bumps. They sound like the bushings because they're loose.

 

It should. My rough country BPE's are out for delivery right now actually

 

Today I got some more goodies.

My LED rock light kits came today:



And so did my 4-AWG wiring kit from 5-90 for my 136-amp alternator:



And I just finished installing them tonight:



For those that don't know Jon Kelley (5-90) he's an amazing guy with great electrical knowledge. I talked to him about all of my concerns and he answered all of my questions thoroughly..

The quality of his cables is top-notch and better than what you'll find at the store. I highly recommend his wiring kits if you ever do a Dodge Durango alternator like I did.

 

Where are those rock lights from? I've built some very similar to that from scratch but never seen them in a kit before.

 

Picked them up on Ebay:

Following 5-90's advice, I downgraded from a 175-amp fuse to a 150-amp fuse to protect my electronics from damage:

 

i opted to use a resetable 150A breaker in mine.

 

Just read all 45 pages, makes me ready to get my Jeep finished up ASAP!! Good to see another FL XJ that's not too far too

 

I'm even closer than he is.... just sayin'

 

Basslicks, literally the minute I make my Jeep road/trail worthy again I'll be getting your info so we can go wheeling in Ocala.

 

Haha
