Where did you install your tank?
I picked up the Truck-Lite/Rigid LED package from Northridge4x4. Sooooooo much better than my jerkwad HID's and Lightforce 170's. Now I just need the 50 inch LED lightbar
I also installed my garage sale steel winch cable. A battery terminal did the trick.
Now I'm just waiting for my Teraflex coils

I put it where my exhaust used to be.

Tuffy Conceal Carry box #247-01
A write-up exists for this one already - but I'm a little late to the party.
A nice piece for the price - thanks Northridge4x4 for the quick service.
10 minutes (or less) installation in an '08 JK provided you have the RIGHT tools with you.
Make sure you have:
18mm socket (1/2" drive)
1/2" drive BREAKER bar - you'll use this a lot heh.
1/2" drive 4" extension
1/2" drive ratchet wrench.
1/2" drive torque wrench (for re-tourqing the seat bolts - do NOT use as a breaker bar to loosen the seat bolts - you'll ruin it!)
I came out clean and uninjured - lol - but if I had tried this with a 3/8" drive set, I KNOW I would have busted knuckles. Those seat bolts are in there tight. I believe they most likely were installed with the equivalent of red loctite. I say this because it took about 10 full rotations of the bolt with the breaker bar to get them loose enough to use the plain ratchet the rest of the way.
It's an easy add on - just make sure you have the right tools - don't say I didn't warn you
And yes, it's already worth the price.

Underseat security boxes.. Love mine.
These boxes don't fit in the JK two door with fold and tumble seats. There are support brackets under the seat that interfere.
That said, I wanted to use the box and decided it would be a great DIY project.. I welded it under my drivers seat.
Surprised there isn't a single comment on this write-up..
