    Changed out the red tails for LEDs...not super bright comparing them. It's hard to get good pictures of tail lights in general at night with my phone for some stupid reason. Lucky for me they showed up today and my driver side just burnt out.

    Re-adjusted my parking brake. Meant to do it after swapping 3rd members but I was tired and skipped it. Back to good pedal feels.

    Found an A.R.E MX series canopy with the walk in door on CL the other day. Replaced the struts and redid the weather seal.

    I paid $500 for it. Not cheap for a used non color matched cap but it's in pretty good shape and they super expensive new. I'm hoping to do some camping out of it soon.

    I've been looking for months so I was pumped about picking it up! Thanks for the tip I'll check out the camper thread. That Maxx air seems like a sweet piece of kit.

    Your window all the way down? Is your window track bent? That’s why my door was stuck shut after the roll

    I'm afraid I might have bent it when I fixed my door latch mechanism. Haven't tried rolling it all the way since, I'm just afraid of the disappointment if the window breaks.

    Pull the door panel off and roll it down and watch everything. It won’t break. It takes ALOT to break a window. Youll bend the regulator before the window breaks

    I’m lighting the crap out of my Gen 1, looks like your 3rd upper lamp has a burnout. T10 LEDs go everywhere except middle dome and head, brake lights. About a buck each on Amazon.

    We use those at work very often. I've yet to hear anything bad. They seem like a pretty nice vent. Very popular if nothing else.

    Went back and reviewed your work and its excellent. Did you make a build page yet? This post could be a sticky in itself.

    Yeah, they got delayed in shipping. Should be here today. Had to replace as the factory torched the plastic inside the cargo light/third brake light area.
    A buck a piece? Did I over pay for what I got on the tails?! Lol. Irrc I spent like 26 for the 4 bulbs I ordered.

    A buck may be overstating, lol. The T10s are about 1.5, but yeah, the bigger bulbs are more for sure. :)

    I just put my order in. I also looked at general spring. The price would be close. Ultimately the dude at ATS made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside so I placed my order. it was roughly half the price of some of the other common recommendations on here. I hope that I can get a similar hub to fender measurement. You said 23" right? I am hoping to add a little rake back since I am often loaded. I don't expect them here until next week.
