Nice. I found a set of used AEV 2.5ā with the 5100 shocks for $100. Some surface rust but I scrubbed it off and re-painted it. The seller upgraded to AEV 3ā HD with the 8100, so nothing wrong with them.
I have the AirLift 1000 bags in the stock Max Tow springs right now. Found Rancho geometry...
@justbig how is your rear articulation with the whiteline? I have the RLD stainless canopy plus iKamper RTT and I'm looking to help with stability, but I'm also concerned about the loss of articulation with the stiffer sway bar.
Chances are slim, but figure Iād ask here before ordering oneā¦
Anyone in SoCal parting out their JT and have a Hellwig rear sway bar to sell? I can provide my stock one if needed (from a Max Tow if that matters).
Yeah, that would work for sure, switch (aux or other) to the remote/trigger pin. But just to be clear, I wired the sub positive DC input directly to the Aux harness under the glove compartment :)
This thing really doesnāt pull than much current and even the fuse on the amp itself is only 15A. I...
Nice. I found a used one last year on eBay for $185 shipped w/tax.
My used unit didnāt come with a remote knob and Iām too cheap to get one, so itās basically at 100% all the time.
I did wire to the interior aux switch harness so I can turn it on and off as-needed.
Took a while to fine tune...
I just bought a 4-pack of aluminum bar stock, 1 x 2 x 8 inch. Will be a 1-inch drop for the carrier bearing at around $8.25 each (not including hardware).

Thanks, just wanted to make sure itās secure enough, especially since the stud is narrower than the lugs and only half the threads are making contact.
Do you have any feedback on the Bulldog winch?

I really like that it bolts up BEHIND the frame, so itās pulling on the frame, not just the bolt heads, which I always found strangeā¦
@Metalcloak same question. I just got the Badland Apex for $360 and debating this or the Grimm. I like that this goes all the way to the bumper mounts, unique feature that I havenāt seen anywhere else.
Yeah seems like Grimms good, no trimming and no mods. Do you know the sale price for it? Regular is $300, almost as much as the winch!
Rough Country is only $150, but might need to trim the lever or add spacers. Anyone have experience with it?
Anyone know about the Harbor Freight plate? $50ā¦..
Just picked mine up in CA, last one they had.
Considering I only spent $360 on this, is there a consensus on the cheapest winch plate for the OEM Rubi steel bumper that isnāt a POS and wonāt require significant mods/fab?
