Default 12 wk2 leveling kit front winch mount

Well I got a package deal, I think it was worth it (1 day of overtime at work paid for it) They put the RRO Leveling kit on with the combo winch mount , skid plate and my tow hooks installed. BUT it is a POSER for now because the WARN 9.5 would not work so got to save a few more $$$ to get the WARN V10000. The stance is Nice
they said RRO shorted me some parts and they could not mount the light/push bars But it turns out that you can not have the skid plate and the push bars on at the same time ? like anyother Jeeper you say it wont work like that BS a LiL modifying and wa-la got it to work ..... The only bad thing is i told the Kid working on it what i was going to do RE: the UNFINISHED look with the Skid plate on, Well he ran with it and thought he would do me a favor and do it for me, it looks ok but He is not a finisher as in rough cuts, i wanted to retain a LiL more of the valance heres a few pictures

Yes I agree. A set of A/T or M/T tires on that thing is going to give it an aggressive look with the new skid plate and winch mount you put on.

I would like to add something, since everything your doing is looking good so far.

I would add 2 off road lights, side by side above the winch. Maybe some Hellas or badass LEDs. Really light the roadway up in bad weather or night time driving.

Well got the tires, Not to bad with the snow we have had. Going in tomorrow for the Mopar Rock Rails, The Book time for them to do the install is 1.5hrs Heck I couldnt remove the plastic trim in that time and from others that have done wright-ups on the install, they are a PITA to install and 6-8 hrs is the normal amount of time to install I figure i will work 3hrs OT and let them do it

That really does look good.

Should be a very practical rig too!

I had someone install my winch mount and Warn Winch, but they didn't get around to installing my RRO Prerunner Skid. I was about to, but then noticed I am missing the bolts to hold the back with. Were those already on the Jeep?

I want to finish before JeepFest 2014 in 3 weeks, but am at a loss. The shop that did mine threw away all the 'extra' parts no longer needed. Wish I would have asked for everything back. I don't know the size and length of them. Sucks.

Anyway, nice rig. I have one similar, 2013 Jeep Grand Cherokee Altitude
