I've had my 80 for a little over a year, daily driven for a while, now driven 2-3 days a week. She has Ironman suspension, sliders, Ironman front bumper, Smittybuilt XRC winch, 4x4 Labs rear bumper with dual swing-outs and spare carrier. PO de-flared her at some point and put bedliner on the bottom 8" of the body. Yuck.
My issues -
Nothing attached to the front bumper is getting power. Neither the winch, small lights on the bumper, or the 2 KC lights up front work. The blinker and "fog" lights on the front are both wired to the blinker circuit instead of on different circuits. Easy fix.
I don't have a battery isolator for the front accessories like I should (according to the bumper/winch install instructions). There's a parasitic draw somewhere. If she doesn't get driven for 4-5 days, I have to jump/charge the battery. This may be related to the lack of isolator I mentioned.
I'm thinking I'll just pull everything off the front and redo it according to the instructions. This may or may not be related to my mirror and fog light interior switches not working. PO put the switch for the KC lights on that pod and probably FUBAR'd the wiring if I had to guess.
Just had the front hubs rebuilt, so that's out of the way. Doing the fender bolt fix since I'm getting a little water on the passenger side floor after heavy rains (sunroof drains are fine). Planning on trans, rear diff fluids; plugs and wires; also cleaning out my EGR port so I can pass emissions in August.
Replacing the old single-DIN aftermarket radio with something better; and figuring out why I have no bass from the speakers.
Finishing install of the 3rd row hardware and seats so all 3 boys can go on trips, wheeling, etc.
All this wrapped around an ER Nurse schedule, 2 boys in sports, and life in general. I'm in west GA, anyone wanna come help out? I have BBQ, beer, and good whiskey.
