I wanted to add to my post above ......my winch is now on lock down!!!!....

I made end loops in a sleeved 1/4 cable and locked the ends together with a good Master Lock; hidden, of course behind the bumper's framing.


---------Who here locks their winch down to the frame or bumper? Do you all worry about theft like me?

Northridge4x4 sells the factor55 'kit' that replaces one of the bolts with a specially keyed bolt that can't be cut off. Suddenly it gets much tougher to steal the winch. It's "reasonably" priced as well when you consider the price of a winch.

Looks good. You are going to love it. I have most of my JK covered. Just the doors, windshield, and some of the hood aren't lined. Raptor Liner is awesome.

That's exactly what I'm painting with regular paint. Grill, hood, cowl, windshield, tailgate, and my full doors. I even raptor lined my door jams. The raptor liner was extremely user friendly. I have a little bit of experience with car paint as my dad was a professional painter.. But I'll tell ya.. This raptor liner gun looks cheap but sprays a very uniform coat.

All of the parts that aren't lined have been so pinstriped over the past 6 years that I'm going to have to line those soon. I'm going to use the tintable kit for those parts so I can keep the Rescue Green.

Looks good! Is it pretty easy to replace the SPOD switches with your own? I don't see why it wouldn't be.
