Well nothing phiscal, but ordered an Aussie locker for my front with spicer upgraded u-joints. Will be installing Saturday morning and will post pics when I'm done.
-Does anyone have this locker with factory axle shafts? I upgraded the u-joints bc they will fail first, but not able to order axle shafts until later on. I plan to so some crawling in the next 2 weeks and don't want to break the factory shafts in the meantime...
I'm running 33's and 35's BTW.

They read a state law that was r rally ridiculous, something about the tires being more likely to come off of rim?
Certainly ridiculous as far as I know, because that is exactly what the bead lock is there for!
I seriously doubt their making it up because five ATX Slabs is a pretty decent sale $ wise

I am so happy that I finally took the leap and replaced both bumpers...
My previous jeep was a 2001 TJ, and it had the simplest bare metal bumpers.
I was hit twice while I was standing still, they said they didn't see me in a bright elbow Jeep!
Both times there was substantial damage to the other persons car
My JK bumpers had big dimples from minor bumping into things out on the trails
Here is my new front bumper...
Here is the back bumper/tire carrier
Both are from Ace Manufacturing the front is the mid width and the back is the pro line.
