    There are plenty

    Think if you want to help, maybe an emphasis on placement of the capture nuts

    If I recall, there are three sizes, two of which are close to the same size so it's easy to mix up their placement

    Don't forget the factory tow hook/recovery points, and the turn signals.

    Those three-piece bumpers probably won't have all the hardware to attach the valance to the metal upper, either.

    They also won't have the outer supports that go by the wheel arch (assuming 01+ still has that), but you can live without them--they were broken on my '98 forever anyway.

    Really your best bet is to buy the takeoff from somebody else installing their ARB. Maybe you can get the takeoff in a partial trade when you sell yours.

    Dude that's badass!

    I always appreciated Zuk's thorough build process and always thought damn, there's a lot of shit you have to get within a certain tolerance.

    It's interesting to see that Delta VS is in business with the manufacturer that made many of Wit's End parts and accessories.

    They took over the designs and own them now it seems; wonder if Joey sold those designs or how that came about but cool to see it being backed by a legit company.

    They're using the Wits End name, so it must be some sort of agreement with Joey, unless he didn't own the name himself?

    Some items don't even mention Wit's End like this seal driver that I own when I got it from Joey - https://www.deltavs.com/all-products/dvs-80-series-inner-axle-seal-overdrive-tool

    Then other items do say "Formerly Wit's End..." - https://www.deltavs.com/all-products/3-eared-bulkhead-air-fitting

    But no, they took over and partnered with the manufacturer according to the news out there? Maybe Joey gets a small cut? Maybe he sold the designs?

    The dash plug has a Wits' End logo on the part itself. Odd that it does and the others don't. Also odd that the dash plug doesn't mention Wits End in the product description when others do.
