These were made by Manik. I don't think they make them anymore. I have since sold them to a friend and plan on adding JCR taillight boxes

I have since sold the light guards, actually did break a taillight with them LOL It broke the mounting ears off the light. I took a break from Jeeping the last few months, but starting to build again. Jeep is more of a camping, weekend trail ride Jeep now. Gotten into exploring the back country and not so much playing at Attica. Just added some new Bushwacker Flat Flares and yes the are easy to modify if you have trimmed farther then the instructions say. Also added 33x12.50r15 Dick Cepek Mud Terrains mounted on 15x8 Mickey Thompson Side bitter wheels. Plans include a Detours Tailbone this summer, and a few other things.

I have 2 extinguishers. One in the rear cargo area and 1 next to my seat.


Not only is the jeep yellow, but so is the ax and gear bags! Definitely a very nice Jeep. Instead of stealing your ax mounting idea, im going to steal your fire extinguisher mounting idea for in the rear. Never would have thought of that! I already have a mag lite mounted beside me in the drivers seat.
