    Okay, so I'm trying to get a winch for christmas. Either a warn or smittybilt. I know the smitty's lock up, but I'd silicone it up try to prevent that from the start. Who else has a CBI front bumper here?

    Any good sources for info on installs? Did a quick search and couldn't find anything.

    Not just that but they would stick too far out on the passenger side in the engine bay. I don't think it would clear the windshield washer tank.

    Pretty simple really. Bolt it down and connect + & - to the battery. I would use a power interrupt kit to turn it on and off. I would get a deep cycle battery if you don't have one already.

    ^^^^^^really good idea. Could keep you from burning down the truck.

    I'm with you have like 3 sets of HID bulbs in the garage including a set of 9003 hi/low hid's with the stepper that moves the bulb for the high beams. Plus ordered another set for the Fj for some reason. Don't ask me why :D

    Yeah that bulb will rule out a dual battery tray set up on the tacos. Holy fucking buoy base batman. Interesting that they are stating as good as HID though. Definitely want to see them in your FJ.

    I know Marlin sells there own Birfields. I bought some from them back in 2006. I'm not sure how they compare to Longfields. They only have a 2 year warrenty.

    I got the Cover King poly (wetsuit) they fit the seats really will and have held up pretty well. Only been on for 4-5 months though. If you have a Costco membership you can get a pretty great deal.
