You should have put this in the events thread or something, wish I wasn't working or I would totally go.

Wired up a car alarm siren to a toggle switch just cuz I had it laying around.

I'll just list this as a "What I'm planning on doing to my X in the imminent future"... Just got off the phone with Chris up at Hefty who called to let me know my sliders are en route and due to arrive this Wednesday.... Sawheeeet!!

So far these guys have been a 100% pleasure to do business with. Their schedule for work and delivery of the product was almost dead on even considering Chris' wife had a baby last week and he's been home taking care of the kids while she recuperates.

And an FYI for those interested and who haven't seen it on their FB page, Chris mentioned they'll be releasing all their products (with the exception of rock sliders) in aluminum versions beginning early next year.  The rock sliders will remain all steel for obvious reasons.  From what he told me the aluminum versions (bumpers, etc.) will be roughly a third the weight of steel while retaining roughly 80% of steel's strength.  Prices for the aluminum are estimated about 30% higher per product than steel but shipping will likely be less.

Wired in a auxiliary fuse box today.



So I wired in the fuse box. Rewired my siren and bumper lights to the box. Maybe by the weekend I will have my roof lights wired to it too.

[Highpointer]

Hefty sliders are on...

[Whattha(Nik)]

I always liked the look of those sliders. Well done Sir.

Finally got rid of my P0420 code today:





I cleared the code, and after several drive cycles, the system shows "Ready":

So, you removed a sensor and replaced it with a bolt?

[AZ-Ted]

No, it's hollow inside.  It's an oxygen sensor extension, and it keeps the sensor away from the exhaust flow.  This helps keep the check engine light off.
