JEEP TIME!!!

OK – On Leave… Check. Dave’s Here… Check. The Weather’s AWESOME… Check. It’s JEEP TIME! It might sound trivial, but I got the new headlights installed today, and it turned into an “All Day Sucker” project. It’s all about doing things in order so I don’t have to go back and take something apart to do something I missed, then do the other thing(s) all over again. First things first: headlights… then, the A/C condenser, then the radiator, and finally the fan and fan shroud. Once those are in-place, I won’t have to take them off again to do all the wiring for the headlights. Oh did I forget to mention I’m going with LED Halos and an H4 relay kit? (Had to wire all that up and make it nice).Dave was busy meticulously cleaning all of the engine bracketry, power steering pump, clutch fan, and got ’em all painted as well. Seems oddly fitting, since it all came off of HIS Jeep’s engine. LOL!!

“With One Headlight!” Dang, I liked that song. Here’s one of the new LED Halo H4 lights installed, compared to the old halogen style stock headlight. The old lights were Omega from a VW bus that had H4 bulbs, actually. The H4 relay kit should make things a LOT brighter, though.
Got ’em both in, now just gotta sort out the black spaghetti in front of the grille – that’s the H4 Relay Kit waiting to go in.
OK – we’re buttoned up for the night. Got the headlights, H4 Relay Kit, and LED Halo ballast resistors installed. Had to modify the factory headlight buckets, since the notches for headlamp alignment didn’t quite match the new [plastic] lights from Oracle.
