Dude re the hole saw… DUH… you just had a monster step bit… THAT WENT TO 3/4 as well!! (dumbass) But go 5/8 and skip the grommet anyway.
@GotScout 16 сағат бұрын
Next time just drill 5/8” and ditch the grom, add a drop of epoxy, done.

Can you run spacers for the pitbulls? otherwise get some low backspace wheels I guess. Generally AT's are better in snow than mud tires. Could get a groover or add some siping to them.
@FortuneOffRoad 8 күн бұрын
My thoughts too on the groover! I like ATs too, but it would be hard to find some in a size like this. My buddy has some 42x14.5 pitbulls and they kill it in the snow. Hopefully these will too! 🤓
@FortuneOffRoad 8 күн бұрын
The wheels are 3.5 BS so I dont want much more leverage on the studs and ball joints. I'll just limit the travel for now. Don't need mu much for the snow

Look under a ~95 or so Explorer, they have a parking brake splitter/slack adjuster in the rear that does what you have made up in a clean factory package. I swapped it in to my 90 XJ when I pulled the 8.8 out of the explorer.

The dimples just add rigidity, so if you wanted to mount something, you could drill into the metal or strap in on through the holes.

I'm installing this at the moment, The bolts that are tacked into the fuel pump mounting brackets are all crooked as can be, making it very hard to line those bolts up with the fuel pump holes. I drilled the fuel pump holes out a little bigger and put the brackets in a vise and carefully bent them as straight as I could. Unfortunately, I've ran into tolerance issues like this before when using Motobilt parts.

My best advice for lights, wire them with relays so you don’t have to fumblefart with switches in the dark bouncing down a trail. I have foreward lights on an “enabled” switch so they will only work with high beams. Reverse lights come on only when in reverse with high beams (no switch). It makes you , and your buddies experience better. Camp area flood lights, and rock/ ditch lights can be on a similar switch with parking lights.
