Nice work? I took a hiatus as well.  Any updates in the past few months?

Yea it seems life has been SUPER busy here lately. I have done a few things as of lately not super cool 1 ton stuff yet just subtle upgrades.

My warn 9.5ti finally bit the dust and the brake assy. was discontinued so a rebuild was impossible. At least that's what WARN told me. So I went with a new VR10s. Not made in the USA like the ti was but hopefully it will be OK for me,

Sometime during 2021 I added a Double din radio. I still haven't hooked up the back up camera...  :-X

Found this sweet inexpensive grab bar mount on Amazon. I drilled a couple holes in it to attach a ram ball for my phone mount. It's WAY more stable than the mount I previously had.

Dayum! That thing is beefage!

After rocking a drop down tailgate for quite some time I decided to revert back to stock. On an LJ with the extended cargo area it was more difficult than I cared for to reach the backseat to grab stuff. I don't think this would be an issue on a TJ. So I designed a new tag mount for the tailgate once again. After the double din install I needed a back up camera mount. (Sorry for the crappy far away picture) I revisited the license plate mound and made it adaptable for a camera. Really a number of different options are possible with the top piece being separate. Pretty slick if I say so myself  👍

Thanks. For the price I couldn't be more happy.

Eventually I needed to clean up my hack job wiring I had done for all of my accessories. I found this 8 button VOSWITCH that fit the bill. They have a universal mounting option which is what I initially purchased as they didn't have any TJ specific mounts. I couldn't find a spot I really loved so again I had to make my own. This took a couple attempts to get it perfect but the end results are great.

It?s at the very least awkward.
