UGH what a long painful day. i worked all day just to fix problems i ran in to. installed a new reman power steering gear box. new right side inner tie rod. i DID get the bumper on in the middle of all this but the winch did not make it yet. the jeep still needs to be rigged as far as the steering goes. and the gearbox still needs a little more bleeding i think. what a pain lol. all this because i broke a bolt in the gearbox. yes i could have had the bolt removed from the gearbox once it was removed but i figured it has had its day anyways so while its out might as well put in a new one. i didnt go for the durango box because i honestly am shot today and i dont need anymore things to think about haha. got some more work in the am tomarrow then ill have a bunch of pics!! hopefully with the winch included!

not sure yet. the tabs for the lights on the new bumper are on the prerunner bar and i would wanna run the lights upside down inside the loop but im not sure it will fit when the winch is in place. we will see. but if they dont fit the lights will be put aside for when the roof rack gets ordered
