    It does! I was going to put mine there but I still have my stock fog lights in my bumper so didn't want to block those up. But it is out of the way and not the first thing someone would see

    When I took my stock bumper off I tucked the wire harnesses up and out of the way and zip tied it. Held up for 9 months now haha.

    Switched my ARB compressor switch back to under the ultra gauge. Looks much better! Also cut some holes in the shifter cover panel for some of my new OTRATTW switches. Still deciding what switch to buy for another accessory that I'm gonna buy. Probably will be for back up lights or rock lights or something.

    Not too much to look at yet but I did take off the rear bumper and get the mounting plates cut and holes drilled in them. Also cut the main 4x4 tube to length. Gotta order the spindle for swing out and probably start cutting out all the plate on Monday or Tuesday.

    Well I made a little bit more progress today with the rear bumper. I made frame plates that key into the main 4x4 tube. I cut the hitch receiver hole and bought the hitch receiver. I cut the grooves where the frame plates slide in. Cut the recovery point bars out. And test mounted the main tube.
