CB Radio Sucks.

CB Radio Sucks. It’s why I have a GMRS radio in the Jeep and so do my friends. It’s clearer and has more range than CB. I wanted one in the tow rig for when we are caravanning to an out of town trail. I installed this @midlandusa MXT275 MicroMobile Two-Way GMRS radio in my Ford F150. Fairly simple install.⁠

Whenever I pull the trailer on dark nights, it’s sometime hard for me to see

Whenever I pull the trailer on dark nights, it’s sometime hard for me to see the trailer tires and how I am tracking on the road. Unless I roll the windows down, I can’t always see if I’m over the line. I put these LED lights tied into the market lights. Should make a big difference. I’ll be able to see the trailer tire and get a better feel for where it is. Next, I am going to add some bright LED backup lights to see better when backing up. .

Broken Fender Liner

I have a set of front inner fender liners from JCR offroad. I love the look of them.

But the one on the passenger side broke sometime last year (or maybe the year before?). Sometimes it gets caught by the wind and will start bangin around. And my Jeep needs a bath.

Now that I have a Primeweld TIG 225 that can weld aluminum, It’s time to fix it.

First things first, a little practice with some 1/16″ coupons I bought from Weld Metals Online.

Then I jigged up the broken pieces and welded them back together.

Through on a coat of paint and reinstalled it.

Happy with the results. Should be plenty string now.

And my Jeep still needs a bath.
