Why? It would just be yet another review stating that the JWs are the preferred light. You obviously wouldn't like it or would condemn it as flawed. I see plenty of brown poop on the road in front of me during certain seasons when the cows are transiting to and from the mountain. I see no...

Sorry...not Hayduke. I had a "Hayduke Lives!" bumper sticker on my Scrambler, which to keep this response thread-relevant, had an oil pan skid. The book is Abbey's Road. Ed and I did an article for Outside Magazine back in 1978 when it was still owned by Rolling Stone. He included that...

If you have a newer automatic, there is a VERY exposed transmission cooler line. At least Jeep put a cross bar in as a token effort to protect it. Oil pan and tranny skids are among the first things I put on my Jeeps. I'd rather have the added weight of a skid than lose weight by draining...

I removed the back seat and had a friend build a deck to create a flat floor with storage underneath. There is now a Tuffy box in the far back for secure storage, with more storage on the top of the box...and the Trek Armor seat covers provide additional storage. The 63-qt ARB is in the Jeep...

Early adopters often pay a penalty. I don't really expect JWS to do anything for those of us who already have the 8700 Evo 2 installed and working perfectly via the SMS harness...except possibly cover them under warranty if anything goes wrong even though they were installed using a third-party...

That's what the SMS harness does...wires them to the battery. For someone knowledgeable in electronics, it might be easy to build your own harness. I installed my Evo 2 headlights a few weeks ago and they are FAR better than the first version. The spread is much better and the high beams are...

As for the tire size, they are 37X12.50R17. I guess AEV has an in with BFG because normal humans can't get that tire right now. Nice lookin' wheels...but I still think I'd choose my Savegres again.

I received the lights and SMS harness yesterday. The circuit board box is larger than I expected (5"x2.5"x1.75"). Since I have the Genesis Offroad dual battery kit installed, the only place I can find to mount the box is on top of the battery hold-down plate as pictured. It will be zip-tied...

I have the AEV 2.5" lift and 33" KM2s. Personally, I like the setup though the KM2s totally suck in snow and ice. I plan to install the new 34x10.50 BFG All-Terrain KO2 tires AS SOON as they are available next Spring. I've had the setup for 2 years now and have found very few limitations that...

Ok, ok. We get it already. Your Trucklites are the best lights on planet earth and you have nothing but unbridled disdain for anyone who thinks or tries to prove otherwise. Personally, I'll stick with the JW Speakers...which are supposedly the subject of this thread. I'll have the V2s and...

Interesting...thanks for the link. I like the halo...and they may soon be available in black. I had VisionX HIDs on my Tundra and they were fantastic.

Mine will be returned immediately if they have this issue. The Evo2 lights apparently come with a harness, but it is not an anti-flicker harness as the person who installed using the included harness reported very bad flickering. When used with the JWS anti-flicker harness instead, he reports...

Mine shipped yesterday...earlier than expected. Scheduled UPS delivery date is Wednesday, 10/22.

Staying off topic...I heartily disagree. I ran Hellas on my previous Jeep and had $2000 worth of HID lights on my Tundra. The 30" Rigid e-series bar on the JK is easily as bright as any of those. The only thing I dislike about the LED bar is that the spread is not wide enough...which could...

Ditto...but I'm not sure when they will arrive. When I checked last week with Northridge, they said "it shouldn't be long" before they received some. My 7-month-old 8700's will soon be on eBay. I actually got a better price by about $18 through Quadratec (even included harnesses, which I...

I wouldn't buy them for the Jeep logo...it was barely noticeable. Here's a 400%-sized crop of an earlier image in this thread.

As for the JW Mopars, the Jeep rep at the Safari said they were "tooling up" to produce them at that time. He did not know a price or if they would require an anti-flicker harness in newer vehicles. The part number on the display was 82214333. I wonder if Mopar decided to wait and incorporate...

They are very similar to the headlights Chrysler displayed at the Jeep Safari in April that, according to the reps, were supposed to be released as Mopar headlights in collaboration with JW Speaker.

The biggest mistake I ever made with any of my Jeeps was mounting lights above the windshield on my trusty ol' '82 Scrambler. Lights above the hood do a great job...of lighting the hood.

Small ones are very hard to find. I use an old Nexxtech Indoor/Outdoor unit. The receiver is only about 2-3 inches square and sits in the tray on the dash. The newer ones from the same company are substantially larger.
