Thanks man! The shop said I should have it on Friday, Saturday the latest. Also got a new Coast front driveshaft to install as well. I'm freaking out with serious jeep withdrawals!

A little Xmas present to myself... A Warn x8000i multimount (bought by a guy 16 years ago, and stored in a storage unit until the other day when I bought it from him for only $350!!!) this is the discontinued little brother of the xd9000. Plus the Warn Rock Crawler bumper with hoop, winch plate, skid plate, chopped to a stubby-ish width was only $250 (plus the very small cost of bead blasting and coating at Powdercoating Plus). Less than $800 all in! Gotta love the Billboard section, and CL.

Removed from multimount and installed just now! I may consider picking up a roller fairlead for it but I like the look of the steel Hawse so far, and it's safe to use a steel Hawse with cable according to Warn.

Thanks. Probably pretty common with a front d30 with 3.73s and a heavy foot on the gas. I have to learn to ease up a bit on the rocks! They lasted me over 90,000 miles so I can't complain. I'm looking forward to getting the 4.88s installed so my performance improves and my low end.

Nothing quite like coming home to your ace fenders on your porch! I know what I'm installing Saturday!
