Ah yes, always forget it's you!

I'll see if a few guys from Long Island Off Road want to come up next weekend, get a decent group going.

Also, I used a U-Haul trailer this weekend to move a couch out of my girlfriends parents house. First time I towed something with the Jeep. I know you say well Seth you have a van, well the trailer was only $14.99 and a lot more fun.
Here's some pics.

This may be a silly question but I have a pair of Daylighters that I would like to mount on my wind shield with a pair of smittybily brackets. Now if I get the the mirror relocation brackets for the doors is that going to interfere with the lights mounted on the wind shield?

They were $65 for the pair. I got them from this place out in California that nobody really knows. They are a secret to those who are the most informed of individuals. I have to say they are a really nice product. They bolt to an existing bolt in the A pillar and are held in with "J" hooks on the roll bar, no drilling required. Wish there was a cleaner looking solution than cutting the plastic. I ordered another set today and will try to do it better.

Towing was fun. Backing it in, up hill with a 6 speed. Well thats another story.

Maybe it depends on what brackets you have for the lights. Mopar brackets bring the mirrors outboard. KC brackets are inboard (or is it the other way around?)



I'm in for next Saturday's run to Rausch Creek. Been a while...

5AM caravan, where's the meeting spot? Taking Southern to Belt to Verrazano Bridge. Need a meeting spot around Southern State Pkway.
