What is the story on the battery disconnect and mount? I would be interested in finding a similar setup.
That looks like the one that comes with the Badlands Apex winch from Harbor Freight.

Where would you add armor? That doesn't look like fun and I'd like to avoid it!
Everywhere lol… I’m missing two pieces of armor that I want. Other than that I’m fully armored up. You can check out my build thread and look at my list on the 1st post and see how much I got.

Sorry for the delayed response…but as rockabillyroy said it’s the AAL bracket. They have their own disconnect but I used the one that came with my Badlands winch. Just wanted it to be stationary.

I’m 3 holes away from stage 1 of my build. Not even sure what stage 2 is??

The final item installed is my ARB safari snorkel. I just have to mount it to the windshield Frame tomorrow and secure the top.

ARB rear bar with rear bed protection
Toyo 35x12.5r17 AT III

I can admit I’m a bit of an ARB fanboy.

It’s a fun big toe Sport!

Dropped mine at the dealer today to have the new Katskin leather installed. Getting rid of the ugly grey and going to have black and orange instead. I will post pics when I get it back on Wednesday. I have been looking forward to this change since I got it!

Of course...can I park my "overlanding rig" on your curb?

I don’t know why but your video makes me think of this scene from a classic movie.

Installed the Rokblokz last night. Easy install and heavy duty. I’ll get better pics today.

Same flaps, same dirty truck, same color, only difference is I went with the black RB logo! I only got my fronts installed though, the rears required a bit more time in the freezing cold than my hands would stand.

I was getting mud splashed up under the door handles and that was nasty.

I added a Black Friday sale Garmin dash cam to my Mojave but I’m not thrilled with the connectivity to my iPhone… That said, I may just have to get used to how it works. I like having one in the truck given how dumb drivers are anymore.

Took advantage of their Black Friday deal and purchased their engine/tans and transfer case skid plate kit. ASFIR are fantastic to deal with. I made the mistake of transposing shipping and billing addresses and they told me they pay extra with the shipper for address corrections should we need them. I contacted DHL and the correction was made. Had it delivered just a few days after the order was placed. Install was easy, instructions aren't great. You can figure it out with a little intuition and pictures from posts like this one. For the Gladiator everything is a direct bolt on. Takes two bolts out and reinstall. Nothing gets removed and everything is installed over the factory parts. Literally took 45 minutes to install. That was only because I has one of the sheet metal clips was installed just a little off and had to redo it. Had to partially remove and reinstall the engine/trans skid. Decided to paint mine, but I know it won't last long. Will look good from the sides at least. Entire kit is like 30 pounds...very light. Have aluminum skids on my TJ, and prefer the weight savings over steel.

The discount price of $344 is great, but $216 shipping is a deal killer for me.
