Love the color of your jeep! Duratracs are probably the best AT's on the market IMO, though Falken wild peaks and nitto at's are well respected too.

Thank you! I really like the Duratracs, I'm going to call and see if they are in stock and go that route instead.

Duratracs are back ordered everywhere right now, next in line are the Falkens, I'm going on a hunt tomorrow.

Successful day at the shop... was able to swap out the bad bumpers for the Poison Spyder Brawler BFH setup, found the Duratracs I wanted, and had the 2.5" leveling kit, and 1.5" wheel spacers installed. Now I've just been slaving all day painting these bumpers! They should be ready to go on tomorrow. I also managed to chop up the front frame to fit the new bumper.

Before, AKA, horrible bumpers:

A few more for good measure, and a teaser of the front bumper.

Your eyes do not deceive you.

Where did you order your brackets, I'm also in centennial I'd love to see the bar I have it sitting in my Amazon shopping cart for a while

Razor31 11-01-2014 12:13 AM

The brackets I got turned out horrible, I paid ~$90 on eBay for them, and they look like they were made by Hellen Keller with a Dremel. I went over to 4WP and picked up the Smittybilt bracket kit for like $260. Turned out to be double the price of the bar, but lets be honest, $115 for a 52" lightbar that actually performs is still really good savings.

I'm reluctant to post this video simply because it does not do justice to how bright it actually is. In person it's completely crystal clear white, almost like daylight. Anyways here's a short video I took between delivering sandwiches :)... pay attention closely and you'll hear some kids yell "What the **** Jimmy John's!?" as I pass them. It's obnoxiously bright.

Wow the price on the light bar is a hell of a find.

I love it, no complaints whatsoever. Just don't cheap out on the brackets. The eBay ones I bought were horrible and I'm still trying to return them. I got the Smittybilt brackets and they're great. I also picked up the set of two LED fogs from Amazon for like $27... they're insanely bright as well, but there is a slight flicker. Can't even notice it unless you're outside of the Jeep looking at them though, so whatever.

Here are some recent pics... first snow in Denver!
