I'm starting to wish I paid someone to fit them for me. I'm feeling decidedly old and sore at the moment!



Nice shocks, can you post a side profile of your JK. I have the same springs but mine are considerably more compressed. How many km have you got on the JK?

I've got 57k up however since I bought it second hand I don't think these springs have that many Ks under them. The first owner was a young girl so I believe the lift was fitted by the second owner who didn't have it for that long before selling it. I think I was probably the first to take it off road.

Fitted up an AEV lift kit for a mate coming back from deployment last weekend, think it's time to get a hoist in the shed!

Wiring all done for the solar, seems to work very well so far. I mounted the regulator on standoff cross pieces below the solar panel so it gets good airflow, it's also done so I can just see the indicator LED's when I go to the drivers door, piece of mind that it is working as it should be. The regulator is fully sealed in epoxy and is IP68 rated (6 means no ingress of dust 8 means powerful jets of water and is one below submerged).



From the front



With no load has the battery at 13.2v (overcast as well today)



Cheers
Steve
