Been a long time since updating and I got lots of changes and pics. Heck its been wheeled in a few states since this was updated.

Front bumper modded with tube and powdercoat
Rear bumper with dual swings and tire and jerry can carriers
12,500 lb winch with 7/16 synthetic line
Radiator, Oil, and Transfer Case skids...runs from bumper to croass memeber under middle of front doors.
Radflo Coilovers up front
Skyjacker Tahoe lift springs for 4.5 inch lift out back
Rough Country Shocks in rear
Delete rear swaybar
Custom front swaybar links
20 and 32 inch LED Lightbars
Got 2 6 inch lightbars for rear to add
35 12.5 17 Fierce Attitude MT
17x9 Black Rhino Spinreel wheels
1.5 inch wheel adapters with larger studs
Fiberglass Cowl Induction hood
4.10 gears
Locked rear
9.5 14 bolt rear
Rebuilt front disconnect
Retuned the PCM for matching everything and it gets me great power and 16 MPG
Standard maintenance of Ujoints, ball joints, hubs, CVs

I am sure there is more and it still changes constantly.

Anyway pics of it all and some in use...

Real recent pics










Added a trailer to the mix...tossed 31s on it and some wheels. Have a slide in liner and camper shell for it. Seems to work pretty good and still needs work, but is handy as heck for camping n such

Got the interior divider wall to keep me and the family safe from flying objects. It is on rails bolted through the ceiling and can be slid up behind the front seats or stay behind the back.







Couple pics of the skids in place. All bolt together and have bolt protectors on exposed heads.
