    That's a nice spring compressor, looks way safer than the ones you can rent at the auto parts store. I just use the truck now. Haha

    While changing my oil and rotating my tires I realized something

    IMG_0787.jpg

    I need taller jack stands lol. Also decided to take off my spare tire carrier chain. Got sick of it and I don't really use it plus I plan on getting my HC and swing out

    Kind of a difficult situation I have two rigid pods as fog lights. Now I have issues when trying to use them because the fuses keep busting. I went up to a 40 amp fuse with no luck. Do I need to throw in a Deutsch connection and then go from that to another and then to the h11? I don't have one on there because they were bought used. Thanks for your help.

    Sounds like you have something wired wrong Matt. No way they should blow a 40 amp fuse. Double check all wiring then try again.

    No need for a Deutsch connector. But they are nice, and are waterproof. What H11 connection are you taking about? The factory fog bulb holder?

    Yea I'm figuring I have the wiring wrong some where. I took out the fuse completely for now till I can fix it. There's a few things I want to try.

    And yes. The h11 connection from factory. I just got the counter part and put it on there

    Cut the factory wires and use a Weatherpak connector on them and also the Pod wires. The less connection you have the better. Never used Deutsch connectors myself, so no clue where to source them. The good thing about the Weatherpak is that you can run your wires right into them, no need to butt connect to a pigtail.

    Man it's been a little while. Came back to over 400 alerts.

    Threw on the bushwacker flares. I haven't cut them......yet because I wanted them to mount similar all around so they look correct. So now they're mounted and I have he holes next step is to trim fender and then the flares. Won't do the rears yet for what's coming at the end of the year. Also trying to figure out a new way to mount my reservoirs so I can add the bumper brackets. Little mods are mostly done.....till I find new ones. Now the larger and more expensive ones come
