Finally got the the black one in the garage, it fit with stock set of tires and after removing the roof rack! In addition to the axles being upgraded, I'm getting rid of this bumper and making something to mount the new winch permanently. This year it WILL be making it to Moab! Wifey had to get in the pic

Thanks Anthony, still has the smashed fender on the other side though, from that invisible hole I ran across one day and fell in it sideways.

You were going for patriotic?![]()
No, they are used springs that were available, and cheap

I lucked out and they seem to be working just fine. Haven't flexed it yet, but I did take some good bumps and whoops on a little track near the house.

Making it's first appearance at Moab 2016 and up for grabs will be the "Boner Award". This award will be presented to whoever obviously pulls the biggest boner, ie oops. Good luck!!!!!!!!
That's AWESOME.
