Looks good though.
your right, matson from metalcloak called me after i ordered these online. letting me know that it will be difficult to install them without the fender flares. so i waited on installing them until i got the front flares.

I think I got dirtier cleaning this pig today than I did yesterday wheeling it.

Had a blast for first time really wheeling hard. Went out with a few knowledgable cats, which is the way to go for a noob. Couple of them seemed quite impressed at what this almost stocker could handle...as was I! Learned a ****load about what to do right as well. Fantastic day.

That said, bent a front fender flare as I was running disconnected. Now I see why antirock would be superior Also sustained a bent front bumper from trying to get pulled out of a rut the wrong way when I was dug in. (happend the first 2 minutes into the day )

Anyway, every break is an opportunity to upgrade

cool thanks, I read about that after I had asked

Purchased a decent set of 33x12.5x15 mud tires/rims (used - craigslist) to get my recently lifted Jeep off it's stock tires. I'd post a few pictures however I have not met the 25 minimum posts yet.

Complete writeup coming soon. Also put in a Kicker sub and Polk Audio speakers. Sounds awesome.
I am looking forward to the write up. I have a Pioneer deck and Polk speaker on the way and still trying to figure out what to do for a sub

12" type R, feeding it 1000w watts. It flexes the doors and hard top.
