Those are beefy threads, they give it a military look. What brand are those?

Enjoy!

Oscar, the center headlights are bright H4 bulb halogens. The low beam is wired to a switch off of the normal low beams, to function as fog lights. The hi beam is wired to a switch off of the normal hi beams. I've since added a set of Hella driving lamps on the bumper, wired off the same switch. Pa. inspection rules only allow one set of aux lamps, unless 'factory'. All of the lights, including the normal headlights are wired into relays, with the switch just actuating the relay.

Luis, the tires are Federal Couragia Mud Terrains in 235-85-16, from Tiresavings.com. I wonder how noisy they are....

It is ready for inspection, but I want to plumb the front wheel cylinder brake lines to where the bleeder screw is in the top wheel cylinder. I need to bend and flare two lines to go from the hose to the lower wheel cylinder.
