"Have to" is such a strong way of putting it. I allow Paula to drive the Jeep because it makes her happy, who can resist that?
I do all the driving offroad.

Congrats on the new rig. When do you want to hit the dirt and see what the next mod is?

So what all do you need to do to get her on the road and offroad?
#9
The main things are:
getting the Seat Belt's installed
putting on a Shifter Knob
Wire up the fuel gauge
and Wire head/tail lights

just small stuff

5pt seat belt?
#11
Yup.
when you got your 5pt's did you leave your normal seat belts in?
I think we're going to have both

I didn't. Just too much stuff. Just don't use the nut crusher and the 5pt works great on road.

Finally got her registered today! Wahoo for that, I don't want to go back to the MVD for a log time.

So now we this nice and shiny licence plate. I was thinking about mounting it off to the side similar to how Dana and Jonathan have theirs.
The question is what did you guys use to get that nice bend in the plate?

Use a light pole and just keep adjusting the bend till it is perfect.

Yeah that works, too. I think I just bent it with nothing behind it and then matched it up to the Jeep til it looked good.
