Did you get the one w/or w/out the winch guard?

CLNinja · 07-12-2007, 01:00 PM

with the winch guard

i just grounded the alarm wire in my ZJ...i was sick of that stupid thing going off every time i get out of my Jeep

Naturalhoosier · 07-12-2007, 01:01 PM

Awesome Matt! I like that bumper a lot!!!!!!

CLNinja · 07-12-2007, 01:13 PM

yeah it was between that and the KOR bumper.. i like the design of the Hanson a little better though.

when i get it this thread will get flooded with pics of it

what kinda lift do you have on that because it does not look like a 3.5" lift!? my brothers 3 is bigger

CLNinja · 07-12-2007, 01:48 PM

Upcountry springs and 2.25" spacers.....according to my before and after measurements its roughly 3.5"

my sliders make it appear lower to the ground since they stick down 2" from the rocker panels

also the camera angle on the picture

in this pic...front is pre-lift and rear is post-lift this is when i was halfway thru

wojtizzlator · 07-12-2007, 01:59 PM

nice ok i was just wondering! i think you shuld get some 3" coils they will sit higher

CLNinja · 07-12-2007, 02:00 PM

if i change it...i'll get 2" coils to use with my 2.25" spacers for 4.25" lift

wojtizzlator · 07-13-2007, 01:42 AM

i say trash the darn spacers! if you get coils you might as well get 4" probably like hundred dollars more and i think itll be way better for you

If you're going to buy new coils at all, you might as well get coils that are the right length.

how is the rest of the Jeep coming along? (besides the bumper). Did you get new tires?

CLNinja · 07-13-2007, 02:15 PM

i will get new tires but havn't yet

right now im in the process of finishing the hood and then im gonna move on to the fender(gonna fix the power antenna while im in there) and headlight/header panel

tomorrow afternoon im going to paint the green on the hood and hopefully lay some clear coat

tomorrow im also plannin on Herculining the rear bumper

anyone have a buffer i can borrow so i can wetsand and buff my clear coat on the hood?

i also still have some wobble in my steering wheel when i turn the wheel to the right slightly...it gets pretty bad sometimes so i have to figure it out

ANYONE KNOW SOMEONE WHO WANTS TO BUY A WESTIN SAFARI BAR?
