Latest mod..


LOL yes a tad cheesy but it works.



One mag light, and a 200 pound magnet. (got it years ago from brigade quartermasters)


Slap that puppy right on the metal below the door sill with the head of the flashlight hitting the bulged part of the interior.

Flash light is not going anywhere. It doesn’t rattle either because the magnet has a rubber coating.

wow that's pretty cool actually.  I don't know how many time's i've popped a fuse and needed a flashlight in the cab.  those also make decent weapons if needed.

I have used one as a hammer.

Mag lights may not be the brightest flashlights around now, but they are pretty tuff!

I am going to get OME 2 or 3 inch springs in the future and maybe suspension arms that are better then stock.

No drive line vibration even at 70.

The bumper is ajustable and will take up to a 40 inch tire!


Great price too. I paid 425$ for any of the Name brand basic tire carrier bumpers you are looking at 650 atleast and thats without anything to hold gas cans or the high lift.

I have a rack for the bumper coming from the same guy.  

I have some JKS disconnects on now too, I just forgot to take pictures lol and a steering box skid.

The engine skid covers the whole tranny and oil pan.


When you getting your Jeep back Guns?


Go here:

http://www.quadratec.com.   Teraflex is better for TJ's than OME, IMO.  I know too many people with Teraflex that love em.  I'd suggest limiting a body lift to only 1" (if at all).

Be sure and get some Racing fuel cell foam for the Jerry's.   My buddy mounted his Hi-Lift on the inside of the TJ.
