Thanks. I originally ordered the black walls, but they weren't available. I'm starting to prefer these...

I have subs, and at idle they'll kill the battery and with the switch they don't drain it as much. it also helps with offroad lights so they dont consume too much power at idle. That and I was just itching to do something to the jeep and that was a simple fix for my craving lol

NICE!!!! I've gotten so used to your old "on the stops" look! Lookin very good now! pics w tires please! I picked up about 300 LB. of weights and a bench and im about on my stops now too with those in the back sits ok unloaded, but it doesnt take much to sag it badly. All the more reason for me to get crackin on getting lift parts. with new leafs for sure!

Got to pass the inspection with O2 at about 4.5% during 2500 rpm and 3.97% during idle. I paid new yearly tax: USD45 per cylinder!!!! stupid tax will be increased each year until get to USD225 per cylinder!!!! and mine is a V8!!!!! fuel is cheap in Ecuador (USD1.47 per gallon!) but taxes will make our V8s less attractive THEREFORE will disappear; it's just a matter of time :'(

Oh by the way, I need a new clock spring, since mine is being temporally disable due to malfunctioning: the damn horn will beep every time I turn the wheel!) anybody want to sell one? I need to import it anyways since they don't have it available here in Ecuador.

Sounds like I've got a leak in my exhaust and my right front passenger shock may be going. Not bad for 126K on the old girl! Just need to figure out the source of the bad noises and fix them.
