Thank you for the compliments.

So the turn signals i bought.....Shoulda followed Mudds Motto

Cheaped out and bought turn signals off the internet without even looking at the stock Turn signal wiring. The signals i bought come with a 2 wire pigtail, white and black- stock has 3 wires, black, and 2 white with an orange stripe. Being impatient and not wanting to spend more money I decided to splice the 2 white with orange stripe stock wires to the white on the pigtail, and the black to black. Well that worked for all of 5 minutes then my dash, turn signals, brake, tail, and headlights all went out. Blew 6 fuses. So Buying some lights from a site I got off of BugginKJs bumper build.

Heres a pic of the signals mounted, hopefully my new ones will be here in about a week.

Right on the money- 265/70 Treadwright MTs. http://www.treadwright.com/shopnow/prod ... -mt-p.aspx

I would definitely recommend them, might try the 245/75s though- dont know how much that would help, but I have a pretty good power loss. Ive had them on for right around 4k and them still look brand new, and are a very good bang for your buck offroad.

Hmmm.....I have to say that there seems to be a problem with your bumper and your CAD drawing.




Your final product just is not to the scale you show with the guy standing next to it. :SOMBRERO: :ROTFL: :-)r :mrgreen:
