Nothing major today. I rewired some things/rerouted connections, and organized the engine bay to try and optimize space.

Before:



After:

That's a level of OCD I don't think I can reach, good on you though.

Got my new Fox 2.0 ST in today and installed it at work (didn't have a 1/2 18mm socket for my buddies torque wrench). Roof is also off for first full day while I'm here at work :D

I also want everyone to know I had to undo a bolt and compress it to turn the Fox label the right side up after initial install lol.

Did the exact same about 15 minutes ago. Felt good in the parking lot but probably not getting out to test it for a few days.

They had my sticker on 90 degrees shifted though... ended up just taking it off which is fine since it'll be tucked up behind the bumper/skid soon anyway.

Haha. I just figured with as many circuits as I'm going to be running, I had better do it right. I have more stuff coming too, so this will be a good (and safe...vehicle fires suck) baseline.

I can understand that if you're doing more under the hood. I have no plans of anything like that right now, but preventing a rats nest and thinking ahead is always good. As someone in IT, thank you for your cable management.

What lights are you running there I like the setup
The lights are both from rough country. The light bar is the 30” between the hood hinge bar and the cubes are 2” and mount to the windshield hinge. Both were very easy to install and hooked up to the auxiliary switches.

After several months of back and forth with Headlight Revolution and waiting days on end for my LED bulbs I FINALLY got them and installed them. I went with Supernova headlights and fog lights. The output is ten fold compared to factory halogen. I got them aimed as to not blind anyone, but they still light up the night. Cutoff on these bulbs is amazing. Plus they cost much less than replacement housings! Very happy!

I now have my main front to back wire terminating at an Anderson style connector for my air compressor. I tied into that line for a pair of 12v cigarette outlets with a 30amp inline fuse as well as a double USB outlet with a 5amp inline fuse. This is all currently connected to my Aux 1 wire in the engine compartment (with its 40amp fuse).

The screws that came with the outlet panel wouldn't thread despite pre-drilling holes almost as large as the outer edges of the threads. I used some 1/2" self tapping stainless screws for now. I may end up painting the heads of them.

I also verified that the inflation Octopus I built for my JLU works fine with the Gladiator despite the extra length. I followed TrailRecon's guide. ("4 Tire Inflation System - DIY")

How do you like it? Did it help with the wondering steering wheel and does it pull to the right?

Good day today as these tires arrived. Have had the wheels for a bit and still waiting for the TPMS sensors.

I hear this repeated frequently, waiting on TPMS sensors. Why aren't the factory sensors swapped to new wheels? Where does one get new TMPS sensors and how are they added to the system to recognize them. Sorry, new to the Jeep world!
