Nice job, good looking set up. LoD is building mine right now. I ordered the full width and will be running the Smittybuilt X20 / 10000 comp winch. Hope mine looks as good as yours.

Looks great
I must say your Altitude looks great. I just picked up a black altitude and have been struggling with the direction of my setup/mods. Your setup has helped me out a lot! I do have a quick question: how is the power after the new larger tires and rims, are you ok with just an AEV ProCal up date? Which gears do you have and do you think you will need to upgrade? Thanks so much for your help, I do not want to redo, lol

Your Jeep looks good. I think a lot of us go through various stages of lift until we get where we want. The LOD stuff is certainly nice, I really considered their rear bumper but went with Expedition One because I like the way the tire carrier opens with the rear door.

Installed mine today. All I have left is wiring up the factory fog lights. I also install a set of#19's springs on the front to replace the #18's. When all was said and done I gained about 1/4" of lift after the full width bumper, winch and skid plate were installed. Also I installed a pair of black ARB diff covers and replaced fluid with Redline synthetic. I'll post pics tomorrow after the lights or wired.

By "perfect combination" you mean looks or actual suspension flex? Many here run 2.5" with proper bumpstops and 35s without issue offroad...
