Took her out to the lake with the family! Hot as hell here in Reno. Happy 4th yall!

 

Looks like a great weekend is in store!

 

Wing nuts are temporary. Knobs are in the mail for the traction boards.

 

Is that Pyramid Lake?

 

P

pyramid and all its glory

 

Best $100 ever spent IMO!

 

I live in NY but spent a lot of time in Northern Quebec. But winter in Canmore. Heaven on Earth. I will take Canmore cold over the heat every single day!

I feel for the folks in the West with this heat. It is absolutely unbearable. To make matters worse there is the drought, too, so water shortages are going to become an even bigger challenge.

I hope everyone stays safe, cool and hydrated !

 

Smoked taillights

Lasfit LED headlights and fog light

 

Today has been busy, installed 2020 LED OEM headlights, huge thanks to @daveeasa for the harness and help, used the harness to connect my grill lights to the DRL lights. Installed Spiker Hood Struts and OEM fog lights.

 

Today the taco was washed, waxed, all door seals siliconed, and it got a bug deflector.
It fits well and I think looks cool with the rest of the black trim.

 

Added a new capability to Odie today! Forget the gun version, I'm going for the tactical nuc!

I saw the switch and realized it was the Army’s old LANCE missile system. I commanded Charlie Battery, 6th Battalion 33rd Field Artillery (LANCE) at Fort Sill, OK in 1983/84. The system could deliver either a conventional or a nuclear warhead from either its tracked launcher (on the switch) or the launch rail could be removed and converted to a towed mode which could also be moved by helicopter. The other pictures are of a missile my battery fired in 1984 at White Sands New Mexico.

 

Had to search a couple yrs back but I made my own engine bay light with the Baja. Looks like same switch and best spot for it. Also how I routed the harness- not the shortest path but the cleanest path. It follows the washer fluid hoses to passenger fender and then main harness along firewall and is hidden/blends in. Have more pics of install if needed

 

interesting.
Not in the market for either of these items but I may have to note these items down somewhere, thanks

 

Is there any trick to wiring up the switch if you didn't originally have it?

I've been wanting to add bed lights but having the key fob be the only way to control them was suboptimal. Having the OEM switch would rock, assuming it's not too tricky.

 

Finally added the ARB diff breather relocation line. Put a good size loop in the line to help with axle movement and tied to the brake line bracket.

If the spot I located it to is ever under water .. I have bigger things to worry about

 

actually, yeah. I’m interested.
I’ll have to save this post and revisit it when the time comes.

 

With no one's help, I installed black badging overlays on my Cement OR...lol Oh, and I received my windshield sun shield today...

Hey, I just got the damn thing a week ago, give me time

 

Pics or it didn't happen.
