    I had slight rub once but that was it. Without a lift probably just need to trim the plastic parts.

    I just used a harness thing off the internet and it went straight to the battery? Have a relay and fuse and all that good stuff... The light stays on all the time. I honestly know nothing about how to wire stuff so....

    One of the 3 connectors on the back of the switch is drawing power from the battery, probably from a bridged red wire if you're using a generic harness that I usually see. Get a splicer thingly and find a hot wire going to your dash lights and splice it to that instead of having it on the harness.

    Thank you! Once you have a single cab it's hard to even think of getting rid of it...

    And manuals are just sooo much fun to drive!:burnrubber:

    LMK which one you go with and how well it works since we have/will have the same setup. :p

    I'm only 5 mph off right now surprisingly according to my GPS.

    How much more stress would 1.25" wheel spacers put on LBJs? I wanna get a set to get rid of the rubbing on my frame but don't wanna risk premature wear of the ball joints...
