    Fckkkkk so many things that I want, so little money... well not so little money but I don't want to go into the Marine Corps with $0 hahaha

    More fogs up near your hood along with the ones down low too :eek:
    I was talking about links for pics of the different options for the CBI rear bumper

    Haha you're telling me! Honestly next up for me needs to be cv's and/or carrier bearing maintenance wise. I think my driver side cv was making noises while crawling around on trails last weekend. The inner boot is torn in half now :eek:

    Plus somewhere in the drive line is occasional squealing. Pretty sure it's the carrier bearing, but I'm going to get a carrier bearing drop first to see what that does.

    The lights at the hood will be aimed way off to the sides where the fogs don't quite reach haha

    Can't find pics at the moment... I've seen the fold down table and camp light mount somewhere though. Haven't seen pics of rotopax mounts. But I know they offer it.

    Yeah I think CV boots and new carrier bearings (or the drop) is in order. Can't show off your fancy Taco if it can't get up n go

    That's the plan haha after seeing yours I figured they'd work well. I just wish I could keep the oem axles for spares without it being so expensive... :(

    You're giving me too much credit haha I don't even see myself cutting for 35's within the year! :eek: would be nice though... Need to regear plus get a bunch of tools and a welder before that comes into play unfortunately, unless I can find a guy who's close and is into fabrication. We'll see....

    With all the info on the 35s first gen thread I started and having done it with a members help I'm confident you can do it on a weekend. Buy a welder and practice!

    Nice being able to weld shit myself. Makes minor fab jobs doable!

    I know I could do it if I had all the tools. I'm not scared to do it myself as long as somebody is there to help if there's a fire haha

    You've still got stock skids, you're fine. But definitely get some sliders.
