    Turns out the relatively easy project of replacing the gear oil in the differentials and transfer case becomes waaaay more of a pain with a skid trilogy. Anyways, that's done.

    That's rough hopefully you can get it all fixed at some point. I was definitely worried about drilling into my shell but it's easy like you said! I bought mine used with a broken window and some cracks/dings in the fiberglass. I fixed the window with plexiglass but still have to fix the cracks at some point.

    Reused my old one after trimming it. Cut scores in my inner fenders so I could bend the tabs inwards

    Finally got around to installing the BAMF reinforcement brackets. Had to use a grinder on them and the US Offroad bumper to get everything to fit and line up nicely.

    Were you able to get the longitudinal through bolt in? I just barely landed mine on the winch mount and had the notch the bottom edge of the USO bumper to slip a wrench/nut up in there. All in all, I'm happy I did as the 12000lb winch has some muscle.
