    Yea it's almost scary! Lol. I do my best to write everything down as I do it along with dates and mileage. And I keep all my parts and oil receipts just in case I forget to write it down. I got the memory of a goldfish so I try to dummy proof it as much as I can haha.

    I hear you brotha, I do the same thing and keep every receipt that involves the jeep. This is my first one so I think I got a good deal. Engine tranny and transfer case are solid.

    I painted my front and rear tow hooks red the other day - I know it is a Ricer mod but it gives my white JKU a little pop of color.

    A few weeks ago I found a like-new mopar bumper light-bar hoop on Craigslist. I knew I wanted to eventually get a light bar or cubes/rounds for the front bumper. I finally settled on a Hella 21" Value Fit combo bar. The bar and switch/wiring/relay came in yesterday and I got it all installed.

    First off, I am a newb to lighting, but I can now see why the SPod, and similar products are so useful. With more lights planned - I definitely see a switch panel in my future.

    Man! This lightbar is bright - I would guess about 20x brighter than my OEM headlamps. Even my wife, who thinks I'm a douche for painting my tow hooks, was impressed.

    I like the tow hooks red also. @JoeInOh . Painted mine. Than replaced the front bumper like a month later. :notsure:. Oh well. If your planning on adding lights. An spod or similar install is a great idea. I have a Trigger. Some where in this thread ,I posted a photo and link.
