I did the same thing back in ‘22 but I will warn you that if you actually intend to use that winch, you should get some frame horn supports to put behind the bumper to tie the mount bolts to and make sure you compensate for uneven surface on the capable bumper where those mounting bolts go...
I have some SAS fenders I’d be willing to swap. They do have some scratches on the rear passenger flare from a tree I got a little close too without realizing it. It’s not super obvious but the scratches are there. I’m in Central OK so just let me know if that interests you.
I run a lot of...
Don’t beat yourself up over it. I would have thought the same thing. Can’t go back in time and change it anyway so just figure out your path forward.
I’ve heard plenty of “knowledgeable” people on here and youtube (the two great information sources of the world) argue against perch collars and...
Where did you find the spring rate on those? I can’t find them online anywhere.
Also, do you know exacly which part # springs you got? They offer 4 different versions, one that’s HD for 2D, one that’s HD for 4D.
I’ve been looking at the Dobinson HD springs for my 4 door sas for a while. I’ve added about 150 lbs with the winch, 150 lbs with frame mounted sliders, 50 lbs with a transmission / crossmember skid, 50lbs to back with my 37” spare, and another 75-100 lbs of gear and cargo enclosure in the back...
No blackouts for me but carplay has crashed on a regular basis for the last year and a half. I’ve searched for threads on this but surprisingly haven’t found any when I’ve looked.
JCR. I think if they boxed in the back of the skid, it might give it enough structural support to hold up but they are just wide open at the back with an extended lip that you can see folded up on one. The other just smashed in from the weight but again it was just lateral bends on the bottom of...
There are dozens of aftermarket options out there. You can also check the marketplace on here and might find the stock steel skid plates for sale. I run the stock plates and they’ve held up well but I had to add a transmission skid and rear shock mount skid. I still need to add rear lower link...
I recently installed the transmission skid (also replaces the diff skid and covers the crossmembers) for the 2.7L with sway bar disconnect. It’s really heavy but really well made. I did lose almost an inch of clearance at the cross members but I’m willing to give it up for the protection...
