The more expensive bumpers don't fit any better. I have a rear bumper from TNT and I ended up welding it on because I couldn't get the holes to line up with the brackets they supplied!

I'll post these here so I don't start another thread, but I got the 1" bl on. Everything went smooth until it came to the radiator drop brackets.

After



Next up is some 1" h&r coils, and bump her while the springs are out. I can fit a 16oz beer can between the tire and

 flare, and still have about 1" clearance.

And in case anyone is wondering about the snow, I was in northeastern nc this past weekend. It was the first time my son saw snow

Thanks! I've put a lot of hard work into her, and she's almost right where I want her. I have an 8.8, artec truss brackets, and aussie going in soon. Still trying to decide between 3.74 and 4.10's. I have the 3 spd and 3.07's now. I still pulled 16.8 mpg at 70(60ish on speedo) on my recent trip. The more I run the new motor the better it runs. After the coils, I'm gonna iron out the small things and jump on the axles. This past weekend I did some snow wheeling for the first time. I'll just say it was interesting
