Little update on Warfighter Betsy.
She just turned 38k miles.

Upgraded a few things, changed a few things.

She's now running a tuff stuff alpha 2 tent.
"I got sick of the overhang of the CVT"

She's also wearing a tuff stuff 270 XL awning
"This thing makes some shade"

Dometic 96q fridge/freezer
"Is it bad I make sure there's always a bottle of rum and bourbon in it?"

Some custom PRP camo seat covers
"So much better than leather"

Next up I need to find a way to illuminate the awning area..
@QuakeLed I'm looking at you. Lol

Some more Betsy Updates.

Warfighter Betsy and myself are now officially Mission 22 Ambassadors. If you are unfamiliar with mission 22 it is a charity that is fighting the epidemic of 22 a day suicides amongst the veteran population.

I'm happy to talk ad nauseum about the 22 a day epidemic amongst veterans. Just drop me a line. It's a cause close to my heart because I myself am a 22 a day Survivor.


New mods to Warfighter Betsy.

Adding 12 more Oracle RGB Rock Lights

New Hcalory A01 Diesel heater for winter camping.

Some wierd old Quake Led soft light strip. It looks like it's supposed to have 2 but there is only one. (Someone left it and the moody control box on my jeep)

Currently Looking for..

3" RGB work lights.
More flexible rgb straps.
40" KM3 tires

I myself am a 22 a day Survivor.

I am glad that is the case.

Some updates on Warfighter Betsy,

1. I have removed all the Quake Led lights, (antenna, headlights, rocklights, led strips); this is by no means an indictment of Quake, I just exceeded the limits of their products and it was time to retire them.

2. I finally got my hands on Oracle Oculus Bi-Led headlights and I am loving them. They are bright. I had gotten used to the 7" of my quake leds and these really light up the road.

3. Currently in the works is a Pin Up style Betsy Ross for the Hood.

4. On order is Black and Green Rotopax for Diesel and DEF.

It's been a busy off season for me, I was appointed the service officer for my VFW Post and chosen to join the 40 & 8, but the work never stops.

Current needs, wants projects down the pipeline

1. Stepping up to 40" tires
2. Bigger lift or that amazing air ride lift
3. Custom badging
4. Vinyl wrapping my tent
5. Warfighter Betsy will have her own webpage on WarfighterNation.us
6. Finding a Place to Camp at during Jeep Invasion (apparently I can't be the king of old time pottery anymore)
7. New solar or propane shower
8. I need to fix the terrible door netting that's sagging
9. Chasing down more unique aerolidz inserts (wish they were still around)
10. Find some way to adjust the soft top tension or lower my lightbar.

Current list of Charities I'm supporting.
VFW Veterans in Need funds, Honor Flight, Pups for Patriots, St Jude, Honor Guard of Greenwood and New Whiteland, KG Expeditions.


As always thanks for stopping by to check out my jeep gladiator. If you like what you see and want to help out I highly recommend donating your money or time to one of the above mentioned Charities.

So today I added a MICTuning 8 gang wireless switch panel. This thing is pretty awesome. Wasn't hard to just swap and go fro. My quakeled switch system. And Now I can see exactly what is and isn't on.

 

[ArmyMP]

Some updated photos.

Hoping ti swap my KO2s for some 40" tires soon.

I need to chase down some steerable knuckles lights, @@quakeled Laser fog lights. A couple more @xkglow Atomix strips and to figure out once again why my whip light isn't working. Ugh.

 

[ArmyMP]

Installed some new xkglow atomix leds strips.

So I tried to build this once on a TJ while impoverished and fighting the VA.

Fast forward to November when sheer acts of belligerence, bullying and daily/hourly calls to offices lead to a C&P win.

This is Betsy, my new JT Diesel Rubicon.

Many many many projects in the pipeline.

As of 12/7 she's now been down in service for a PCM and while there some night mechanic cut the fence at the dealer and blessed me with a DPF'less high performance exhaust.

Hey there, I am a Vietnam vet, waited 54 years to file a claim with the VA, been denied on most claims. Is there any way I could talk with you about how you won your fight? Thanks

BTW: I make full-color custom Jeep graphics.
