Just finished fixing the fog light. I replaced both bulbs a while back and they had worked just fine. So, I took the housing apart, checked the bulb, checked the volts to the bulb and there were none. Fuses ok, wiring under the hood, ok. The last place I checked, of course, was the connection behind the turn signal, or should I say lack of connection. I plugged everything in and now it works fine. It must have come loose during the last off road trip.

Nice glad you like the ride. Even my GF said wow the Jeep is riding smoother!

Built storage for my hard doors. A $20 furniture dolly from Lowes and about $20 more in other material. A lot better than $150!

Thanks for the pics. I was thinking of doing the same for my hardtop and doors. Like you, that high price was a little steep when lumber is so cheap!
I did the same thing a few years ago when the price of a weight bench was sky high. Some lumber, bracing it right, and some time with power tools and I've got a combo bench/squat rack in the garage without parting with $250+ of my hard earned money.

And it was almost close enough to today, and technically I did finish part of the order today, but I ordered everything I need to replace the stereo with a unit that handles XM and my iPod. Ordered the head unit and XM tuner last night, and ordered the extended iPod and USB extension cable this morning. Should be in next week. I'll post up pics of the process and end result.
