    Quick updates:

    Flush mount LED pods for the rear bumper came in and I pulled them all apart, sealed them, reassembled them, and then bolted them up.

    New fog lights came in. Again I pulled them apart and sealed them and reassembled them. @Mr.Miyagi whipped up some sort of fancy plastic spacers on the Bridgeport for me to get them to right height. I bolted them up with stainless hardware and they look great.

    Also, my freedom offroad UCA’s came in. They look nice and beefy! Box says made in Taiwan which I think is funny because the company is “Freedom Offroad USA” But anyway, here’s some pics ...

    the angle of the UCA box made it seem like it was huge at first.. was trying to figure out why they would send a 4 foot tall box for it
