When after installing an hydraulic(!) winch the brake lights stop working and the CJ spends the next three weeks in the garage with all its wiring gutted because there's shorts everywhere. Yet all electrics except the brake lights seem to work. #puzzled.

You know you drive a CJ when the guy at the parts store says "I don't have that in stock but I can have it in the morning".

When they say. I will have that here in about two hours. :thumbsup:

Dagoomba, sounds like someone installed the "Brake" light in the spot of the "Amp" light. Does the "Brake" light come on when key on/engine off? Maybe switch them...

I replaced all my e-brake cables while I was replacing the brakes during my mild rebuild because I need them to pass inspection, lol.
I will not have an e brake or anything. Because I went to all disc.

You can still have an ebrake with disc brakes. Depending on which style of disc brakes you have, the ebrake cable will either go to the calipers or it will have drum ebrakes. Here in Texas you have to have an ebrake that works to pass inspection.

When you realize your Christmas list is chock full of jeep parts you don't wanna spend money on but need along with requests for auto part store gift cards...

Oh the joys of being a broke college student trying to keep the CJ running.

Also when you drive around the trail hunting for the 2wd fords and dodges because they need a pull and your solid steel bumper is an easy hook up.
