Went from stock Rubicon Diesel to Base build list started at SOFLO in Ft Lauderdale, Florida. I went a few steps further with Banks tuning, Metal Cloak reinforcements, JL marine audio, and fender liners. Still work in progress. Fender chop next in line...

I'll never understand Florida.

Anyway, almost all of your build isn't to my liking but that's preference and taste and whatnot. I do like the color coordination with the satin red and... bronze? Not sure what you call that color.

But I'd suggest you swap out that winch line for a synthetic and put a nice hawse fairled on there.

Also I can't believe anybody makes an mt in that size. What size is that? It looks like I made a tire wider using the clone tool in photoshop

Yep, definitely a mall crawler at this point. I may convert to off-road, but for now...just a toy. Not everyone e buys a jeep to go up a mountain. It's a 4 wheel motorcycle to me. To answer an earlier question, tire cam angle makes tires look wider than they are, but they are 38x22x1550 on a 14" offset rim. I had to upgrade the ball joints already making me rethink my wheel choice. Will likely go to a bead lock. I need a new pair of shoes so I'm gonna hit the mall 😅
