    Sock preference

    Patagonia makes killer socks. Last me for years. Three different weights (which are color coded, which is nice). I highly recommend them.

    I talked to the owner of the Dirt Bagz company. What a great guy. I'm going to buy a pair. Thanks guys for the recommendation!

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    Oh, and I use illuminated switches from OTRATTW but I didn't want to get into that wiring on this diagram; mine are two colored with half illuminated when the vehicle is running, and the other half lit up when the circuit is on, in both constant mode and auto mode (which is nice reminder when...

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    ThirstyCamel- other than my 3 way switch, which in essence works exactly the same as a SPDT but with an Off position in the middle, what you typed and what I drew are exactly the same thing. Re-read line by line and look at my diagram; I've done this about 5 times now and see no difference...

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    Gentlemen, great response. See below diagram, which is rough, but accomplishes what I'm trying to do. In this setup, when I flip my 3-way switch to constant, the intent is the Rigid Lights to go on (marked "R" on the diagram) and the trailer reverse lights (marked "TR"), but not the OEM reverse...

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    Okay, I'm at Radio Shack. Their 3A diodes are 50v, 200v, or 400v. The only 12v diode here is a 21mA which is way too small. They also have 1A at 50v, 200v, 400v and 600v. And they have no 6A at this location. Are any of these what I need to buy? Thanks guys.

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    I use 7 pin on all trailers, to have the reverse and constant 12v. That's what I was thinking, to tap it all behind driver taillight. Where do you buy your diodes? Thanks for the responses, I truly appreciate it.

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    Rynomar- that's very close to what I'm talking about, but I also want my reverse lights on my trailer, the ones that run through the factory wiring, to light up as well. I guess I need to just splice that harness up behind the taillight (my trailer wiring harness is the Mopar plug and play...

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    Gentlemen- thanks for the replies. Yes, diode is what was thinking of. I am using a Rugged Ridge Switch Pod on the A pillar. I was really wanting to know if there was somewhere to tap the reverse wires up under the dash so that I could control the oem reverse lights, my new rigid lights that...

    Switching Reverse/Rear Lighting

    I am mounting Rigid Duallys in my rear bumper. I plan to have them on a 3-way switch to run them independently of my reverse lights. But, I also have LED reverse lights on all three of my trailers. Is there a way, without hacking into a bunch of wiring, to actually tap the reverse light circuit...

    Storage bins for rear sides of '12 JKU - anyone sell any?

    Now that I've looked at these, I see the bags strap to the hardtop mounting holes. I take my hardtop on and off all of the time, so I'm not sure these will work. I've emailed the vendor. I'd really just like some open topped bins of some sort. Thanks.

    What airbag to use for a light trailer?

    I asked AT about 3 months ago if they would sell me a suspension system and they said no. Does anyone know where we can get plans for this type of setup? Thanks.

    Storage bins for rear sides of '12 JKU - anyone sell any?

    I'm looking for molded side bins for the rear of my '12 JKU, to store gloves, flashlight, etc in. Does anyone make some that fill the voids under the rear side windows? There's a ton of wasted space there that could be utilized. Thanks.

    12' JKUR Electrical Problems

    My windshield wipers turn on for one wipe about every 10th time I turn my blinkers on. Weird.

    Question about interior lighting...

    I replaced my interior lights with plug and play LEDs. They're super bright. My issue is that the lights turn off too soon when I'm loading my '12 JKU at night. Does anyone know if I can tap the oem wires somewhere under the dash to wire in a three way switch so that I can run these as long as...

    Rear Shocks Under Load

    I added Airlift helper bags. Bought their Load Controller compressor kit. Modified the bracket for the gauge/power/air release valve and mounted to holes in driver seat of my '12 JKU. Mounted compressor under passenger seat. It looks awesome and the bags work great. Sprayed with AEV texture...

    The "Well isn't that Clever" Thread

    Coleman sells an LED cooler light now for $20. They are great. REI has them. What took 10 years to come up with this? http://www.coleman.com/coleman/colemancom/detail.asp?product_id=2000006665

    Outlander Trailer Sherpa II project...Dial-up beware!

    BWJ- how do you load an ATV? It appears the top crossbars are welded. Or are they just pinned? Looks great. Thanks.

    Any 12V power packs like this in the US?

    Ah, got it. Thanks again for taking the time to write. I was thinking of the one-way diode type isolator. I bought my Diehard Platinum battery today!!
