Should I have gone with something like that, yes. Did I look at it, yes. Did i do it, no. Still should though, yeah, because I am asking for a fire yes.

The lightbar came with the wiring already setup, just hook and go. I figured using ring connectors to the bolt on the battery terminal ends were okay. I set it up the same way as the lightbar. As said, I'll grab some pictures and then sure, gladly take some suggestions.

I didn't even bother with a fuse, I hooked it to it's own switch, setup just like my light bar. Ground, battery terminals, visor, switch. I was going to hook it with the headlights, but that's a lot more hassle than it's worth especially when I'm already planning to get like an 8 or 6 switch...

I just put it underneath the weather stripping and ran it down until I ran out of stripping. The leftover wire bundle is still just handing there in between door panel and dash panel but from there its inside. And the same spot is where I ran it along the hood seams and hooked it to the battery...

Sounds like a good plan! I'm looking into a bumper and a winch as well. Just need to be sure what I do will fit with the tires I go with.

And well, well, well...I love when you manage to wire something on your own when no one thinks you can. Sat out there for a whole day testing and being sure and by the next morning, bought the right amount of wire, a new switch, etc. And had it up in an hour. Did also replace the bulbs with...

Looking dang good man! And you just accidentally helped me, was curious about the 5" RC lift fitting. What do ya plan to do to her next?

Yeah, annoyingly it's all one piece. I just recently replaced mine with a smoked one to match the truck, not a fun replacement since the bolts were rusted. Just hoping that's all the issue is for you

Okay, pulled up an old search result since I'm now in the EF. Any ideas if this will fit the explorer? I'd like to just do this over paying for a custom design if I can. I know RCD had a 5" too but it was a coil over...

Rather not lose my bumper if I can help it, I'll trim if needed. But really? From what I'd heard, the sport had larger wells than the standard 4 doors.

But there is still the issue of: yours is a sport, you had larger front wheel wells then mine. So I have that going against me

I'd love to see those, need to look at some aal kits

By the way, seen mixed reviews on it. With just the TT and warrior shackles, I should be able to fit a 32", right? Or should I maybe get a body lift before hand? If I do the lift first, they'll be bigger than 32"s, not a huge fan of body lifts, but they work better with for my wallet. Can pair...

Well, I had a friend at work that had the P0420 code on her Scion XB, in her case it was the O2 sensors. I haven't personally ever seen P0133 or P0153, but front what I can find they are both the O2 sensors as well. So, give those a shot first and let us know how that goes. As for the babying it...

Here, have fun, literally attached the old ones to the new ones and it works fine.

Still need to take her in and have the front differential rebuilt, probably will in a week or so, depends on funds. She's up and running again, brush guard included! Just a couple other little projects to sort out, like replacing the third brake light at some point when I'm bored. But dang is...

Sorry, meant to reply sooner, it's kind of rednecked but it works. I'll take a pic of it tomorrow, but shes up and running. Even put the brush guard back on. Only thing now is to figure out where to wire my moonvisor, anyone got any tips for wiring it to work with the headlights? If not I'll be...

Okay, the key programming worked, started right up. But now I have the issue of, the battery cable ends are shot. They were already loose, but one's snapped now. Having some trouble finding them, if anyone has any links to ones that work for mine. I want to assume these are fine, assuming that...

Yeah, I understand that one. I'll match everything up eventually, but right now I'm just doing enough that I can open it if it does, and so the bloody girl will actually start up again lol

I have new door locks (only one in), honestly I'm fine with having two keys: doors (hatch included) and ignition.

Fair enough

This one says they can program them as well. If not, I have some companies I can ask to pop by. Supposedly Pop-a-Lock can do it.

Well I'm looking at having a locksmith mess with it tomorrow. I'll just ask if they can wipe it completely. Depends on when my keys arrive though, and still need to have them cut. May have to have it done on Tuesday if they come in too late. Unless, I just use my new ignition cylinder, bought it...

And since my key won't do it? I need a new key programmed into the PATS, right?

Okay, so it is the piece I thought it was. Also, different key, like a second key or like a whole new key and cylinder?

I've left the key in for 15 minutes and it will stop flashing, completely off, but it still won't start. What does the transponder look like? I think I found it when I pulled crap apart this morning but I'm not 100%. I did make sure everything I could see was plugged though. Going to a store to...

I have tried starting it many times while the battery was 100% hooked up and it still did the same thing. Not sure if it ran that B1318 code though. I can test it tonight

Because I tried half of it at 11 pm last night after work, wasn't the greatest idea, no. I've been leaving it completely disconnected when I'm not messing with it

The battery was only a few months old and I just smacked a new battery in when I picked it up the yesterday.

But that could be because I just set the battery connectors back on to mess with it. Didn't actually tighten them back down

P1260 and B1318, ignition voltage below 9 volts. That was both codes. Fun

P1260, is the code that it gave me. But it only said "Theft detected engine disabled"

Okay, well that gives me a little hope. Just hoping they can get to it sooner than later. Running out of options when it comes to borrowing a truck. lol

But if my key chip is damaged, they can still match a new key to the ignition, right?

Yeah, mine has neither of those it has like a KL (I think) logo on it, with Italy below it.

My '99 Exploder XLT has just under 217k on it. But I think that the trip and odometer are off so I can't 100% that. Plan to test it though.

Well I may end up taking it back, but either way, my code reader can register that PATS is active but won't do anything with it. There is a program mode but at the moment, I don't have the cable for it. Assumming that the program mode is for the system and not the device. But I have forscan on...

Well mine ain't the greatest, the pinstripe overlaps itself in several places where the cut it and put a new strip to continue it. They didn't sand the truck; so its just primed, painted, and coated over the old red. It's not smooth in several places. Peeled a little in one spot on the roof...

Well, it's not a master key that I have, I the know that. What I'm doing first is replacing the ignition lock cylinder. Comes with 2 transponder keys, already coded. Picking that up tomorrow so we'll see how this goes
