Recently I got my hands on a xrc8 winch for free so it was time to build a new bumper to mount it on. I wasn't a fan of the extreme winch we sell so i decided to talk with max and we came up with this.







and all painted up


I'm going to repaint the winch before it gets tossed on as it could use the love!

well after staring at the winch ill pull it later after i get to test it rather than painting it first.

finally got around to redoing the new tire carrier!






al painted up!

I pulled the extra isolators and replaced the rear shackles to get her down a about a inch!



next is gettting bushings replaced in rear springs and replacing the leaking pinion seal:
