Don't mind the rock rash, I drive better by brail!

Not really Jeep related but I started on my garage lighting project. I need to repair the ceiling before I mount the last two lights. I've posted this in the off topic thread. I had a lot of help on this, thanks to Shawn for putting up with all my questions, texts and calls.

After with Prime Lights 5700 lumen LEDs.

I too recently replaced the lights in my garage with LED. Such an amazing difference!

Nice enough today that I swapped my hood louvres from the old hood. Swapped out the hex button heads too for a set with phillips.

Impulse buy. I didn't necessarily need these but a stronger ujoint is a good excuse. Installed but never ran. RG&A chromos with the 1350 ujoint.
OP
A long overdue, but functional mod.
Where did you buy the hand throttle at? Also do you have any change in cable tension depending on which gear you're in and the relation of the shifter to the front of the body? (2nd is further than 1st from the engine)
OP
eBay. Where I do most of my shopping. My battery cables are ripped out at the moment but sitting in the driveway shifting thru the gears I felt no change. I'll get a pic of the throttle in first, but it clears the ARB rocker switches just fine
OP
Oh I'm sure if it was changing the tension on the cable you would hear an rpm change as it applies more or less tension on the throttle. Let me know if it takes off in 2nd gear.
When I use mine, I reset the lever before a shift. I also set it up to require a bit of lever throw before the cable engages the throttle. That helps prevent accidental take offs.
One of the fun and surprising things about a hand throttle is when have it set as a "cruise control" on a long climb. Once you crest the hill, the Jeep accelerates!
OP
Oh I read ya, sorry I was thinking something else. I'll let you know tomorrow when I drive it. I upgraded battery cables but I need to attach one wire from the starter to the PDC still.
Mine isn't affected by gear shifts. When you shift you move the entire assembly, it doesn't move the cable inside the sheathing if that makes sense
