    You're probably going to need to drop the whole glove box to get to it. It's not terribly difficult (had to do it to wire up my remote starter) and you can find instructions here:

    Installed LED kit today and I'm pretty happy with increased lighting. Holding off on installing the puddle LED's until I get the blacked out mirror turn signals.

    Thanks for being a guinea pig, and attempting this. Looks like you're right, probably not worth the trouble. I think the sellers of LED bulb kits have no clue the glove box light won't take the same type of bulb. I appreciate your willingness to look into this.

    FN FX Pro matte gunmetal wheels and Toyo AT3 tires are on! Love the new look, looks so bad ass even with stock suspension and standard 265 70R17 size.

    Blacked out badges, window deflectors, smoked 3rd brake light. I have a Borla muffler on order as well as some color matched engine cover stickers. I'll be painting the stock wheels soon as well. Falken tires in the fall as well.
    Got the U-Haul trailer and loaded up the Willys. tomorrow into Sunday we'll be going 640 miles to my Son in North Carolina, the Willys is his now. Towing just the trailer (about 2,300 lbs) was fine. almost no rear sag and the Runner pulled it with no problem at all. It was all flat and only for about 6 miles. I took it for a short drive with the Willys on it and yeah, there's a noticeable difference in acceleration but it doesn't struggle by any means. We'll see how it does on the highway. Pretty good sag in the rear but it looks worse in the pic. The slope of the drive way adds to that too.DSCN5518.jpg

    Back the jeep up so it’s more over the tandem axles on the trailer. It’ll put less weight on tongue of trailer and less sag on the runner.

    Can't. The tires have to be against the stops in front of the trailer in order for the straps to go around the tires. The straps just make it around the 32's as is.

    I thought of that but the top is in so-so condition and would probably rip apart from the wind. Thanks for the suggestion though. I don't want to take it off in case of rain

    Discount tire just notified me that my Method 701 wheels are backed up another month.....
    :rant::pout::notsure::help::frustrated::censored::annoyed:
    I'm seriously thinking of going with different wheels right now. 2 1/2 months is way to long. Any recommendations?

    Just added the following:

    - TRD pro wheels
    - K02's size 265, but I really wish I went 285. Next time for sure.
    - N-Fab predator pro steps
    - Icon Stage 2 with the 2" real coil

    Mooresville. Just north of you! Took 9 hours to get here in Natural Bridge, VA with a couple of stops to pee and one to get gas. Getting 13.5 MPG as per the Runner. It was better until I hit some pretty good hills in VA but it handled it pretty well. The Runner towed very stable and no buffeting felt from passing trucks. Kept it around 60 most of the time. Another 4 hours or so to my Son's place tomorrow. DSCN5519.jpg
