#teamGF #CDR - JT Gladiator Overland Build (Blucid)

[Blucid]

We did some snow wheeling this weekend, was a lot of fun. A local track, we tried to get to the lookout but it was too slippery so we were just hanging around the mountain.

Mod #015 - Lux Lighting Systems Rock Lights - [LINK]
Completed February 24 / 2024

What was Ordered \\
1x Monster LED Rock Lights -[LINK]

Install \\
The install was quite easy, well relatively speaking. Routing the wires through the chassis was a bit of a pain in the ass. But the lights have built in magnets so it was easy to find a nice spot to mount them. Still have to clean up the wiring a bit, got to find a nice bus bar to mount everything too. Also still have to find some good spots for certain lights, like the ones in the front and the one next to the exhaust in the rear. We wired them into the MOPAR Aux switches that came with the Jeep. The lights were kind of a impulse buy, because we bought 3 sets for 3 different vehicles.

[On its Way] Picked up a Pair of Seat Risers as well to make the trips a bit more comfortable.
