Well having it shipped so I will not have it till later next week it has 2" lift, skid plates, ARB bumper, winch etc..
Few issues I know I have to address besides doing full service are ABS light is on and rear sunroof not opening.

I want to get rock sliders as it does not look "compleate" with the ARB bumper and nothing on the sides. Not sure which to get the ARB ones are steps which I detest. Also, like to get the rear solid bumper to match but I don't think ARB makes that either.

Short term "master plan" is to add side rails, rear bumper, roof rack, ladder, hood blackout and ARB snorkle.

Hope it is all you expect once you get your hands on it. High Country has a nice rear bumper.

Is the snorkel because you plan to do fording or are you more into "The Look"?

When you get it, the first thing I would do for the abs light is check the front wheel speed sensors. Most times the vibrate/work themselves up creating too big a gap. Try tapping them downwards gently. Then, if all is good, the light will go off, but not until you start driving and hit 5-10 mph(normal).

And if that does not do it, check out the attatched file for troubleshooting
