    13 Rads left...Yeah!
    I finally decided what I'm going to do with my messed up pole damaged front end and the rear chrome issue. I like the build quality of my Body Armor Rock "steps". I may go the slider route at some point but I've abused my Rock steps pretty good so far with no issues so sliders can wait awhile. I'm staying in the family and going with Body Armor TN-2961 rear bumper w/o Spare tire mount. (Don't particularly care for them at all) 95 lbs. Will come with Clevis D-ring mounts instead with D-rings. Body Armor TN-19335 front winch bumper. 175 lbs. Comes with light brackets to mount OEM 4.5" fogs. Will square out bumper holes to accept square LEDs. Maybe. Bumper top deck designed to mount a 30" light bar. Still deciding on winch. I've always owned Warn winches. Still open minded on the winch thing. I may go with hydraulic and make @ColoradoTJ help "mount" it...heh...heh..The Body Armor fits my budget quite nicely. SPC's next up after this. (Now if only my dang W2s would get processed) NO MORE CHROME!!!

    Now waiting for IRS to do it's thing. Winch bumper is coming from BuiltForTrucks.com. The rear bumper is off Amazon. Working in the background with @eccracer104 on a winch deal from AutoAnything. Got Body Armor stickers. Just need the hardware now.

    Thanks. A lot more nicer builds here. I'm forced to do best bang for the buck. Going good so far. And nothing on a credit card. All cash and carry. Tires are financed though.

    Got my Cooper ST Maxxs' balance checked and rotated. Took only 35 minutes. Balancing checked out good for all 4 tires. No changes required which is cool. :thumbsup: Had some help from grand son.....................

    Very interested to see how you like it. Looks clean and simple.

    Also interested to see how install goes.

    Yeah was looking for a winch bumper that was beefy and clean look. Can mount a 30" light bar on the top deck. Install will require two bodies. Re-read the instructions a few times. Just a matter of some minor trimming and loosely bolting it up, aligning, and tightening everything up.

    Was considering going with new OEM style. My driverside headlight mounts are broken except for one. :homer: Just ordered Spec-D crystal/black (@coosbaybaker) off Amazon.

    Going to add extra seal to my new Spec-D headlights before install. The Spec-D's seem to be factory sealed with Butyl which is great but want to eliminate possible condensation. Trying out this new sealant from Gorilla>
