Savvy. I have had it a while, just getting around to installing. I believe it's back up on their new website now though.
What did you do to your TJ today?

Brought the trail ready wheels in to be balanced today, will probably look into picking up a set of centramatics also.

Finished my passenger side mini-boatside. This is a huge gain in clearance. It's just so clean looking too. Just needs some dirt and grime.
I think I scored a pair of 32RH's with transfer cases for $500 total. I'm picking up one pair tomorrow hopefully. The other later in the week.
Well it’s not what did I do to it today.. it’s more of what I made my son do.. he sent me a pic of it while he’s enjoying it out West
Wired in rear defrost with the integrated dash timer and my own fuse/relay box. Rear window doesn’t seem to be getting warm but connectors on windows measured 12.3V when on. Any ideas?
Is the grid intact? Check continuity/resistance to make sure. If it's not, you'll get an open circuit. The grid can be repaired - see Page 8G-6 of the service manual.
In the manual that @sab referred to it states that there should be a “distinct difference in temperature between the grid lines”
Rewired my new cigarette lighter power chargers. Hopefully I will be able to charge my Jackery and run my refrigerator during my next camping trip.
1000 Watt
I like it. I take it on my Jeep camping trips and on our travel trailer trips.
I was using it to power the fridge on a Jeep trip. I added the power ports so that it could charge it off the alternator while running the fridge. Apparently it spiked over 15 amps and blew the inline fuse. It is tapped into a 20 amp fuse slot so I put a 20 amp fuse in and will test it to see if it works.
Be careful with advertisements showing inexpensive Jackerys. If you look into the specs, they do not produce as much power as the full priced ones even though they are labeled the same. My buddy was going to buy a 600 Watt Jackery for $300 or so until he realized that it did not have the same capacity as the $600 Jackary 600 Watt. They generaly run $100 per Watt.
So.... when do these go into production for those of us that do not have this kind of Fab skill?
To be honest, the initial build of this one took up a lot of time. Check, double check, triple check, drill, weld, re-drill, cut, grind, etc. It was a ton of work up front, but the first is usually the hardest. I did a very good job documenting my process so the other side goes smooth for a video I'll make.
Now I know why production runs always seem very "loose' regarding fitment. There are a bunch of different variables that could be applied depending on how you want it. Keep it loose and it'll fit most everything. I couldn't imagine doing all this custom by hand for a customer. You thought Genright was expensive. I couldn't match that price for time and materials.
OH I totally get it. I do IT for manufacturing. Unless you do it, almost no one gets "first run/prototyping/development" costs and issues. Everyone just sees the production runs after they swipe the card. I hobby fab in my garage when I need to but nothing on your scale or skill.
About the only sliders out there worth putting on are the Genrights or Savvy (Blain's designs) and soon to be BFH Garage's sliders ;-) I would really like the Savvy's if they start making them again. I tend to think the GR's are going to be the only real option when I get to that point.
