Just some updates.... took of the light cage on the roof rack, dropped off my gas tank skid and Crane diff cover to get powder coated, installed a Smitybilt I Rack system, picked up some Quick Fist clamps, Silver Star 9145 ST fog light bulbs, and thanks to Jinstall some "Cherokee" side molding.

Image

Image

Image

Image

If you look on the left of the I Rack system there is a spot for a gerry can. Since I already have two on my carrier I am removing it to make room a shovel and axe. I am using the Quick Fist to make this happen.

Image

My "Cherokee" side molding.

Image

Oh and I'm sure I have never posted this before but here is my Smitybilt Beaver step. This thing is awesome. I can get to my roof rack with ease, use it to recover vehicles, and it is a good place to use my Hi-Lift.

Here are some night shots.

HID’s only…. I don’t have high beams

Image

Image

HID’s and KC’s

Image

This picture does not really capture how much of a difference it makes.

Image

Rear

Image

And in this shot you can really tell the difference between the HID’s and stock fog lamps. I picked up some Silver Star 9145 ST bulbs to see if it helps.

Image

Image

Once I install them I will post up a picture….. but then again you guys probably think I have over done it with pics.

I've got one of those beaver steps also got it when they first came out. Makes it so easy to throw a tow strap on to pull someone out .
Looks good overall

:lol: Will do....

Have you tried using a Hi-lift on the Beaver step? With Martins bumper I think it works out great. Oh and a question for you. Would you recommend using a Hi-Lift on the Super Skinks?

Got it from a member on here (jinstall), I think it came from Germany.

I just loop the strap thru the middle opening, then take one end of the strap and insert it thru the loop on the other end and pull tight. I use a shackle to attach it to the other vehicle or another strap.

The RL rock rails will take a high lift with no problems
Yep the beaver step you can run the loop around a few different ways
makes it a 2 second hook up instead of using a shackle
It comes with suggestions on the different ways to hook up

Well got the Cherokee side molding on my rig after spending an hour per door removing the old 3m tape and junk left over. I also managed to attach the Quick Fist clamps on the I-Rack and mount my shovel and axe. It’s starting to really come along as my "Overland Expedition" rig.

1st off.. Awesome Rig!
I was wondering if you cut your stock front flares or those were from something else? I may have just overlooked the answer somewhere.
