Ha Ha Ha...that was the First Official L.O.S.T. run...the mall is about .5 miles from Devil's Den...we have 8 KJs and some other Jeeps with us. Went from there to Cibilo Creek in the afternoon.

Ted (USACop) decided to follow me between two tight ridges up a 65% slope...He completely destroyed his stock step rails...he just ripped them off and continued on his way...

From what I hear that is a one off bumper for that outfitted KJ...not available to the public....would be sweet if it were though....

IT wouldnt be hard to replicate that bar + do a little extra to the top section. Just need a good fab shop. THere's enough pics of it lying around here to use as plans.

I like how they flipped the warn winch upside down to mount it in the bumper. I think that's what TR should have done as well.

I like the black bars that hang down in front of the front suspension. I've wondered if I should be concerned about that exposed front end with my ARB.

I believe that's the Liberator, a concept vehicle from DC.

Or 5...my old TrailReady front (had the rear too but no pics)...Tuff bumper...not light but if you change the cable to rope with a rope type fairlead you lose 30# off the front end...Never know if TrailReady will ever make these again (Think they only made 4-5)
The Bull Bar leans forward which I liked...I don't like the rear tilt type bar on the ARB

Looks good without the stupid light guards but....you definitely would have to remove the spare from the back.

Darby, your KJ was the reason I wanted one. I saw it on the old site way back in the day and wanted mine to be just like it. I still have the www.kjjeep.com sticker on mine! Old school :roll:
