    I didn't either, just an Icon one. I've gotten a good amount of parts from them including my icons so I asked if they had any laying around. Waiting to hear but I wouldn't mind running some of their stickers because they've helped me a lot and have given me great pricing.

    I will hopefully be putting more miles on her this sumer. Going to try to hit a trail a couple times a month and hike the other 2.

    Dang you are up there!

    I feel your pain. I want to get a new board and I have to get all my hunting stuff this summer.

    So the turn signals, hazard lights and horn suddenly stopped working on my 4runner. Haven't messed with anything besides replacing my positive battery terminal last night. Any of you guys ever had this happen or any ideas? Checked and both hazard and turn fuses were blown so I replaced them and they immediately blew.

    Nope checked two of the grounds in the engine bay and they seem fine. I did replace my wiring harness for my projectors the other night but I placed the ground the exact same way as before.

    You won't blow fuses due to a bad ground. If you have a bad ground...things just don't work. It seems you have a power wire that is touching another wire or grounding out on a piece of metal causing a short, thus popping your fuses. I would check all your wiring and connectors for your new projectors you just put in. Check and look for any bare wires...especially at any connectors. If you have a Power Probe...that will make life easy. Good luck.

    It's not my Birthday...but @ramonortiz55 made me get this for myself. Him and his darn GB...which I just absolutely love to sign up for..haha!! I still have to get an axe like yours. I'm really hoping this shovel ends up being as sturdy as they said it is!! Then I got the lazy mans jack...haha!! Just throw it under the truck add some exhaust and poof...all jacked up. Maybe I can return my Hi-lift now...haha?

    You and me both. I can't stand doing electrical work. The worst is chasing down shorts and bad grounds. Although since I bought my Power Probe...it's been a lot easier. You just touch wires and is tells you if it's broken or not..haha!

    buy the whole set and sell the parts separate..

    at that price, its still better than what those blocks go by themselves.
