    What kind of table are you making?
    I'm finishing this one up for my wife this week. Trying to get a perfectly smooth finish seems impossible.

    Checked the template against the snorkel body. One hole was 1/4" off so I made a new hole in the template.
    Now I need to buy a 4 1/2" hole saw.

    Those terminals look good, can you post or link me to pics of some installed. What is the biggest advantage of replacing those. I have seen some of the Audio terminals used in the past but this does look a lot beefier.

    Thanks

    I just installed these same terminals a few weeks back. They provide a lot of options for connecting directly to the battery.

    I still need to clean up some of my wiring but you can see them installed in this photo.

    I did a thing :D

    took advantage of cyber Monday @Wheeler's Off-Road Inc and got another set of coils. Overkill? Maybe but I need to have the current ones rebuilt probably going to use @AccuTune Offroad for that. I went with a custom tune and 650 pound coils

    [​IMG]

    We also had a local meet up which will probably be one of the last ones off 2020 since winter is coming too chicago

    You’ll be surprised how cheap you can get them from your local fab shop. I ordered mine for 650, now I’m just thinking if I should let them powder coat it for 150$ or no.

    If they're powdercoating it, yes, 100% let them do it. They'll fix any issues caused by their fabrication in order to correctly powdercoat it vs just a powdercoater in general.

    I'm liking the look and price grizzleys stuff. I'll most likely get my sliders from them.

    My Front and rear have both held on good with just the factory clips. Haven’t had a problem yet.

    I did order new clips though. A little bag of 100 of them is cheap.
