yeah i see them for around $95 now... hmm

 

Looks like they have at least one left from the lot.

I'd ask them how many total they had available. I was able to combine for shipping. If this is the last one they have, after adding the cost of shipping for just one, it may be better to shop around a bit more....

 

good work man, cant wait to see the rear bumper! i really don't like the stock disco rear bumpers at all. they stick out to far and there are too many lights on it,.. I've been thinking about rear bumpers more then anything lately

 

wow.. This disco is perfect, good job. Now I have a templet for my disco 1.

 

So, Java - what winch are you going to stuff in that nice front bumper?

 

Java,
Looks great. What size tires are you running?

 

Alright, I got the rear bumper "attached", but not yet fully "installed". Translation: had some trouble with holes lining up correctly, so for the time being, it is attached by only two secure points, rather than four. I am waiting for word back from HiCountry on what I did wrong, or what steps I need to take to get this thing completely secured and all off-road bomb-proofed...

It's been a fun installation so far, though! Got to get the angle grinder out and cut a good amount of the lower rear quarter panels off. That was a good time!

While I have the rear fender flares off, I've painted them with Dupli-Color Truck Bed Lining to match the bumpers and rock sliders. They look good!

I've taken lots of pictures to document everything on the installation, problems I ran into, tips to make things easier for the next person, the body trimming, etc. SO as soon as I get everything all buttoned up and complete, I will post it here in this thread.

For now, here's an "In Progress" pic of her with the rear quarter panels freshly trimmed... no bumper... no rear portion of rear fender flares...


Heading to Cincinnati for a Horror (not to be confused with *****) Film Festival this weekend, so I probably won't have things done until sometime midweek next week. But keep an eye out, I think you guys will like the final pics!

...then I'll need help discussing winches - not sure what will go in yet....

 

wow, that's quite a haircut!

 

you got to cut it up that high with this bumper, it wraps around ^

op did you get the exhaust hole cut into the left side?

this is the bumper im planing on ... i think. cant wait to see pics!

 

Seems pretty easy to brainwash 40 kids after reading that article.The Sudweeks seem to have the technique down just right, dont they?
