Installed my Olympic Slider Bars .......................
I will replace above image with my own after I take some in the morning.
I got the Rubicon Black ones. Install was VERY easy. Each one has 3 mounting points, 2 to the existing body mounts and 1 to the frame.
After installing these, I now know what the "pinch seam" is that is often talked about. Now I need to figure out a way to cover it because I can not stop noticing how ugly it is now that I've seen it!
Finally peeled off my dreaded X stickers................
Oh yeah, The wife removed my pine tree air freshener and replaced it with a palm tree one!

Ebay's "Cool Tech" Cat-Back Exhast
I installed the Cool Tech Cat Back exhast on this past weekend and dropped the stock mufler off and replaced it with the provided MagnaFlow mufler (roughly 15 lbs lighter) and about 17 in of stock pipe. HUGE increase in Horsepower -- smoked a rice burner in a 1/4 mile !!! Coupled with the N & N air filter. Only wanted it cause it moved the mufler up and out of the way but love the reduced back pressure and better gas milage. Oh and im NOT being paid to say this.
Still need to hookup fogs. Will try and get some pics and post asap.

Rescue Bean, it is always a good idea to have an up to date fire extinguisher, for grass fires, gas fires, run away campfires, electrical, whatever.
When you are off-road always minimize the damage and increase the opportunity to get back. (Carrying waterproof matches is also a good idea)

Did you run into the problem where the plugs won't reach the fog light plug-ins? If so, you can get some extra length by removing the fog light wiring from the loom. It'll give you enough room to reach on the mid-width.

Finally got the Tires and Lift done this week. I will post pics this weekend. All I can say is 'What a difference from stock!'
