You can also double check your steering stops. D2's can have a longer one and a shorter one. It was up to how LR felt as I haven't found a true method to their madness. It was supposed to be short = 16 rim, long = 18 rim, but I've seen so many that don't go by that lol.

Finally got the front bumper from Tactical Rovers. On to the new fender flares and she's ready for the road! Still have some other projects but she'll at least be a driver.



Tactical Rovers bumper with WARN V10000S winch.



Got some TerraFirma fender flares, then she's hitting the road.

Sorry folks. I've been distracted with work and have not had time to post updates. The build continues. Bajarack arrives today so will start that and lighting this weekend.

Starting with original car (as I bought it from soccer mom to now):





New table installed in tailgate.



Updated fenders and changed out side markers.





Still need to figure out that gap between steering guard and bumper. Not sure why it bothers me so much.



Rear ladder installed. Shackles front and back

Where did you order that rear interior panel? I'm loving that. Would be great for tailgating

Since I am still having minor clearance issues, I have a couple remedies so to not have to change the stance of the car. I have cross member spacers on the way from RTE (Thanks Simon!). I also picked up a set of Typhoon-style 16 inch wheel with BFG KO2s mounted on them. That will giving me the roughly inch or so I needed for full articulation. I can still use my Hurricane 18s for highway and trails.
