    You may want to zip tie that e-brake cable up off of the leaf spring - it's wearing through the rubber. I had the same issue and I also added an extra piece of rubber hose around it in case.

    Installed a battery on/off switch (red), to cut power for the winch and second battery in the trunk. Dual battery isolator (black) was installed a few months ago and works great.

    Love the xl linkable on the roof. You make your own mounts for that?

    That's a lot of hood glare. I moved my offroad lights to the front bumper, they were blinding me on the roof.

    I’m sure lens pattern plays a role on this.

    Hood glare definitely is a consideration with roof lights.

    Reflector beam patterns will absolutely affect the amount of glare experienced. Spots are best to minimize hood glare, as well as the angle of the lights. Going with a top brand that actually engineers their products for optimum output and performance like @Baja Designs will also help with this.

    I had the same issue. I was able re-bend the brackets to allow more clearance.

    Not sure if I’m doing this right… is this where I post if I’m excited about my new tire/wheel setup? Method 705, 0mm offset, Falken AT3w (285/75r17). Super happy with how the titanium wheels look against the cement.

    edit: Bilstein 6112’s up front on 1.9 setting; 5100’s on the back.

    Do you really run that without a topper or tonneau? With dirt roads, leaves, acorns, dogs, dust, debris and cargo, it would take about a week before it was so filthy it would take me a week to clean. Looks nice though.
