First set of those I have seen mounted. Let us know how they do!
McCain Spring
I took the 80, dog, and my daughter camping with some friends out in Anza Borrego last weekend at McCain Spring. This location is upstream from well-known Fish Creek Canyon. I apologize for the mediocre pics.

X2. I replaced all mine when I did my rebuild. 300k and they were all fine.
Fitted a custom stainless 3" snorkel!

Maybe I'm being dense but what brand of shocks are those?
Ill do a report after in a few months.
OME Long Travel Resi's
Rolled 293k.
Did the oil and diff fluids, then got a new toy and some drawers...
I loved the OBA on my troopie and had to have something for the 80.
Plans are to eventually divorce the compressor from the tank and find a sexy way to mount them in conjunction with the drawers.
Anyone have this type of tank mounted externally while retaining the spare underneath? Not a fan of tire carriers.

I just put the HIR bulbs in the headlights and the difference in brightness and whiteness is instantly apparent and rather stark. Great upgrade. I also put upgraded brighter bulbs in all tail light positions, plus upgraded 6w 194 bulbs in the front markers as well as in the doors. The 6W 194 change gives about double the light output of the stock 5W 194 bulb. Below the door it comes in handy when you're out in an unlit area and drop your keys or something on the ground. I got the HIR's from Amazon and the rest from Daniel Stern over at Candlepower. I put the "Stage 2" 6W 194's in all my cars that take the small wedge bulb - 194, 168, W5W, etc.
If you send D. Stern an email stating what car you have, he'll send you back a list of anything he has that will work in your car for higher light output in each position.

I am not a fan of external tire carriers on an 80, either - I have one of Tools' Puma/tire mounts on order https://forum.ih8mud.com/az-copper-state-cruisers/682700-tire-carriers.html

Ride is great.

Brought my 96 TLC (and a service special coupon 
) to the dealership for front and rear brakes service. Once completed, tech drove it to the waiting area and I got in and drove off. Drove 100 feet and...wait..wtf?!...someone bent and broke my power antenna 
...guess who washed my vehicle and forgot to lower the antenna....guess who is buying me a new antenna? Pain in my a**.

Stance looks way better now.

Shoooot, I'd be like, "hell yeah.....I'm getting a new antenna!

I tore my Puma apart last weekend and started mock ups to mount it in the pass rear quarter panel. It's going to require a good bit of modifications and will be extremely tight!!!! If it successful I plan on doing a write up.
I plan on mounting my tank on my MetalTech slider bracket.

How heavy is that handle going to be? I hope it's hollow
