Lets see a side profile with the flares on!
I saw that. Sad day, but completely understand. Subaru should make for a nice daily. Hopefully not out of the XJ game too long!

100% will do. I haven't heard one single negative about them, but I'll be sure to give an honest review

Only real benefits are more clearance at the bottom of the axle tube and allows you to use standard grade 8 bolts.

All 4 Offroad rocklights just came in. Heard a ton of good things about these so I figured I'd give em a shot.

Haha thanks, a lot more work, hours, and sweat into this thing than I'd care to admit.

Also, I literally just finished unloading a truck with some stuff I've been waiting a long time for... If there are children in the room might want to tell them to leave. It's about to get downright pornographic in here.

Just picked up a couple sets....
Besides night wheeling I'm looking for discreet/hidden lighting to be able to work on the vehicle in the night instead of having to use a cell phone light...
