After 79,000 miles on my oem wildpeak atw3 it was time to upgrade tires. After debating between 37x11.5r17 Nitto Recons and 35x11.5r17 options, I went with wildpeak stw4 38x11.5r17. I wanted to stay with my original rims, and I also tow a camper some...so I figured 35s would be better. Wildpeaks treated me well so why not stick with them

Also put on 2 harbor freight roadshock edge lights via a kc cowl mount bracket

Only lift is 3/4" daystar pucks front and rear. I may get a 1.5-2.5 lift in future.

Added metalcloak sway bar disconnects up front on the mojave. Should help a bit with this scenario. It's mostly our desert go fast rig so the sway bar will usually remain connected, but even in the desert you find yourself on more technical trails some times. For $100 why not have the opportunity for a quick disco?

thing 2
I started to mount some old school Hella Ralleye 4000s I had been hanging on to from my old XJ from years ago. in the process of test fitting them loosley on the front hoop, one of them swung down and shattered the lense on the steel front bumper :mad: . time to start drinking

Another mod for the very advance wrench operator! I installed the 41.22 hitch skid. I did not injure myself or lose a socket! And I dig the orange! Oh, and I “borrowed” the locking hitch pin from my wife’s MB.

It started off with FedEx doing FedEx things.

Then it turned out okay. Had a few minor scuffs that needed touching up but these are meant to take abuse.

Before anyone asks, I made adapter brackets for the mudflaps. They work too good to not have on there and are still really easy to detach when need be.

Installed the Tereflex 1.5" Spacer Kit for the front. Wanted to recover the drop from adding the winch. I don't mind the rake as I do haul stuff so happy that while not as big it is still there. Now have more wiggle room for the 35's when the swaybar is disconnected. Tube doors on the way from @Exceed Fabrication and a whip flag as well.

Before:

After:

Also that really scary part where it's just you and the jacks... Really had to drop it so stands would not fit.
