Moab is right around the corner, you'll be wheeling sooner than later

 

No

 

Exactly why I'm trying to maintain priorities; half of me says "bigger tires, front bumper, and winch" and the other half says "stick to Tyler and Matt's 4x4 conversion list" so I can convert effectively and efficiently.

 

Yeah I would agree with that, stick to the list, then when its done look at tires. @eon_blue wheeled without a front bumper for a long time. Scrapes wont bother you if you know you will be ditching it eventually.

 

Don't need a front bumper to go wheeling.

 

The front bumper would only be to carry a winch; wouldn't want to change it for anything else.

Scrapes I have a ton of already! Wheeling in some BLM and I was caught in a few tight spaces where I earned a lot of pinstriping. That and I've been to Hollister Hills plenty of times and there are a lot of tight trails there too.

See the dent in the rear of the bed? That's before I got my rear bumper

 

Badass.

I'd go with a hidden winch mount if I had the fab skills, and those that used to make them don't make them or even post on TW any longer.

 

exactly

 

But you do need a skid plate at least in terms of protection

 

We should park next to each other when we meet up at the mall, just need to get a hi-lift jack mounted on my hood first

 

Helpful, yes. Required, depends on where you are wheeling.

 

Impossible. I don't leave the garage.

 

True

 

But your drive way is too steep for me to drive up and park on...don't have that 4LO yet

 

What's a driveway?

 

This is a driveway

 

Amazon specials FTW

 

Back to the garage. But it's nice out so I'm working in the driveway

Pulling the axle tube it is

 

3rd genners be like "does this match my truck? I need those IG followers"
