Well a few days later I find out my carrier is cracked. Jeep wont give me anymore lockers lol already had 4 replaced. So it looks like the jeep is 2 wheel drive for a week or so ordered ARB and 35 spline hardened axels. Didn't want to spend the money on this so I guess rear body armor needs to wait. Need a little down time. Fix it up.

shit'll buff out...



seriously though, looks pretty much cosmetic to me. probably need a new door, rear quarter/fender, but I doubt there is frame damage or anything terminal. definitely seen worse damage on the trail

So it begins (for me)...

Got the Hanson Front Stubby and and Rear w/ their new square framed tire carrier. Oh, and a winch.

My first mod, took way longer to install than I originally figured, but it was all fun and have started learning a lot about my jeep - even on something more or less basic as bumpers!

Without winch for those interested in the look:


With Smittybilt XRC10 Comp:




With Hanson's front skidplate (didn't fit all too perfectly and had to make a few adjustments):


And here's the rear. I don't have my spare on it yet because, interestingly, the stock will not fit on it - backspacing too much. But... in a few weeks, she will have 37s on her feet!
