03 Rubicon Next Phase

The Jeep gets used as a grocery or takeout food getter sometimes. With the back seat give, there wasn't a good way to carry anything. So I took a discarded lawn and three 19 x 13 crates from Amazon and built this. It uses two of the seatbelt attachment points, so it can be removed easily.

Driving to mine and my son's normal Sunday breakfast at the Waffle House and full blown death wobble happened. Once I got her stopped, I creeped along at about 30 to the restaurant. The steering was super sloppy. The trackbar bolt left the building. Big thanks to @DanStew who was grabbing breakfast for the trips to Lowe's for a temporary fix.

And for the nerds, you can see how the failure progressed through the bolt.

As everyone knows, factory TJ reverse lights aren't very bright. I wanted to try a cheap, easy alternative. I found a LED bulb that fits in place of the standard bulb. I'm pretty pleased with the result.
