So after looking into the seat heaters and how to mount them i came up with the last thing that will also accompany the seats. I pulled my eddie bauer seat covers off and pulled out the lumbar supports. These will also go into the seats. Hopefully it all works!

You'd better put a couple in the sides of Carly's seat to fill in some free space, Randy, to keep the poor girl from being beat up in the whoops. :lol:

So the starter in my bronco is dieing and oreilly wanted 120 for a new starter. Ive had issues with cheap starters so i spent an extra 30 bucks and got the powermaster. Its good for 10:1 so ill be fine. Also i sold my old gears and was able to pick up a set for the front diff. After this no mas upgrades for a while unless i build a chase rack. (I already have the material)
