Northern Virginia Roll Call

Summer project is to get this warn bumper with a smittybilt x20 10k winch

 

I couldn't get my LBJs out to save my life with the same impact and tool kit as @EatSleepTacos and @ilubtimmyhos. I think it's a 50/50 shot you will get them out, but always worth a DIY shot first!

 

Why did you choose the warn?

 

I was wondering the same. My guess was availability. Can probably get it quick through Amazon.

 

They're lucky you were coming through.

That clip you posted of the fireball was actually @Rome604 taking an exit ramp.

James I love your random knowledge. First Kowloon, now Mothman.

Winch is next for me too.

 

How will those lights match up with the standard light cut outs in a rear bumper?

 

What standard cut outs are you referencing? All these need is a 1.75" hole cut out, and a 3/16" on either side for the bolts to go through.

 

@LocoLocal I am full of useless knowledge but glad it entertains someone. I sadly missed the Mothman Festival in Point Pleasant WV this year because of work. Definitely going to try and go next year, its pretty awesome!

 

Like I just ordered the standard rear bumper with the light cut outs.

 

Cheapest no wait time

 

You bought from SOS, right? You'd have to see which lights the cut out is meant for, as they're all difference. For example, Joe makes his cut out for the Baja Designs flush mount S2 I think.

 

It’s a life saver when you hunt alone

 

That’s what I was thinking. I’ll just email Eddy and see. Caliraised makes a couple flush mounts

 

Looking at a few pics on his website it looks like it's cut out for any flush mount square pod, like this one.

That was my thinking. I’ll probably just order a pair of them. I’ll loose my upper light on the passenger side because of the spare so I may try to order a single pod for the drivers side

 

I skipped the press and did these last year. No complaints yet.

Have you ever anti seized your LCA alignment cams?

 

Yeh I've never needed to be recovered but I would prefer to be prepared. It's also nice in that you can hook a gambrel up to it and string it over a tree for easy butchering. Because of CWD some of the areas I hunt require you to butcher it before even leaving the County.

 

I think these are exactly the same as the caliraised without the logo and price tag. They fit both my SOS rear bumpers and haven't fogged yet. they are actually a little too bright and white out the stock rear view camera a bit.

I'd guess that they're sized for Rigid D-series flush mount pods. Based on the 2x bolt holes per side.
