    Even with the RGF ones needs frame reinforcement. Weak and thin steel they start to have issues.

    No sir, knees on either side of the steering wheel and my seat back almost scrubs the bottom of the rear seat...

    And I thought it sucked being my height and having to lean down to see the stoplight...

    I spoke with a local wheel place about ordering a 5th KMC beadlock. They spoke with KMC who are currently out of the wheel I need and won't get more in for about a month. So I'll call back in a month and hope I can get an order placed.

    In the mean time you can scratch that itch by painting your current 4 blurple. Im pitching ideas to keep the customizing of this mild camping truck moving forwards.

    @6 gearT444E because you're a smart cookie. I know my gauge cluster has a diff lock light even though I don't have a factory locker. Do you know which pin on the back harness lights that up? I would love to wire in my ARB locker switches into the dash so I have a more obvious visual cue of my lockers being on.

    A little digging through the FSM and I figured out the pin myself. Still not 100% on if it'll illuminate if I just provide 10v-14v. Or if it's the opposite? It looks like if it's getting +12v, the light is off but if it's getting <1v, then the light illuminates. That wouldn't be hard to do. I'll have to pull the dash and see if there's a wire in that pin.

    May not even be a bulb in there. Which could be more fun for you.

    There is. I used to have an ABS kill switch wired up that activated my non existent factory diff lock, thus killing ABS. The diff lock light would illuminate on my dash.

    Hmmm, now the gears are turning a little bit. Rather than just illuminating the light on the dash, I could make it so when I flip on my locker, it actually tells the truck the "factory" diff lock is engage and it kills ABS, also illuminating the dash light.

    Good. Because some manufacturers will use the same gauge overlay and housing, but not put bulbs on the circuit board. Sometimes it's an easy upgrade. Sometimes you find out how shitty your soldering skills are.

    Are you trying to use the OEM wiring off the FJ case into your dash for the light? Just curious.
