So been a while, life stuff.
Here is what we've gotten done...
Needed to get a rear camera installed as I had to shange plans and head back up to Oregon on short notice due to an emergency...here is what we were able to get done. In the photos (I really hope they dont show up upside down again I dont know why that keeps happening)
1. multifilament nylon braid as loom for future runs.
2. Polyester looming tape with synthetic rubber coat for securing wire bundles.
3. built new RCA cable with Anchor coax as the stuff that comes with back up cameras is pathetic.
4. labeled all the wires and have a labeling "system" as well with clear heat shrink adhesive lined over the labels.
5. Cleaned old ground point (G401) and applied SteelCamel protectant to the grounding point.
6. added strain relieving grommets to the passthrough to the under cab.
7. loomed the cable with pest deterrent loom on the outside of the vehicle.
This was all far more works then it seems as I had found a complete mess where the trailer hitch wiring was as the guys who installed it completely destroyed the wiring underneath so later when not in an emergency will redo all the mess. UGH.

Got mad at it, and well it was yesterday too. Head gasket blew on the Xterra and I still have about a month before the Jeep shows up. Good thing my wife works from home. Now to call some scrap yards I guess.

Sent my Cherokee in for an oil change and an inspection sticker. Turns out they couldn’t do the oil change because the nut is stripped. So I need a new oil pan.

Installed bilstein 8125 coilovers and adjustable tubular upper control arms. Lifted 3.5"

I managed to get the towing Relays into my '13 Frontier. I now have running lights on whatever I'm towing with that vehicle.
I also replaced the light harness and tail lights on the trailer. Just need to re-secure the wires inside the trailer.

I am converting it to LPG (propane) dual fuel. Spent 5k USD over landing Europe… I could have saved over 2500 USD if I had already converted it.
