got my CB done, I like the home made mount.

Having a front locker is AMAZING! I love it. the Lock Right pops a bit more then my spartan in the back but thats probably because its the turning axle lol. Steering is ok as far as normal driving... interested to see how it is in the rocks lol

Still on the quest for a gas tank skid... the one I got wont fit over my gas tank lol.

Gave the jeep a much needed bath, then helped shawn mount up his t-case skid!

That sucks the tank skid didn't work Tristin. Is swapping out for a metal tank an option?

Question, in what way did the skid not fit? I installed one out of a early 90's on mine and with the exception of having to "finesse" the rear of it with a BFH to fit the curve on the rear of the tank it bolted right up. We should have the same tanks so I'm not getting why you cant get it to fit.
Nice antenna mount by the way, Lol!
