I was coming home from work today, Looked into my mirror an I saw this coming up on me . I think it looks angry with the tube work IMO. My wife did comment when we got home that she has noticed not as many people will turn out in front of her at the last minute or cut her off since the bumper went on !

looks bad ***!
kinda random question here, do you know where the airbag sensors are? I was just curious if the stinger would get in the way and possibly prevent them from deploying right away. I've heard it can happen but I don't know how much truth there is to that. But, if people are afraid to get in your way, who's worried about crashing? lol

Thanks, Like always there is still more to come, But it will probably a little things for a few months , But down the road 6-8 months There will be a Longarm, an Maybe a swing out carrier in the Mix . After that I will have to save for an Exocage

Nope, I've been too busy. I'm half tempted to drop the XJ off at 4wp and pay to have it installed. But I did get 1 step closer to getting it installed since the lift is at work now. Who ever installs it (myself or a Tech @ 4WP) will enjoy the fact that I have been saturating every nut and bolt with PB blaster once a week since January !

I do not have too much of an Update, Last Sunday I had installed a new eletric fan to replace the factory electric fan that had the bearings go out on it. I did drive it up the canyon to get the motor warm to ensure it was working properly here are a couple of Pics I took while up the canyon :
On Monday I had replaced the U joints on my Sub shafts up front with some new Spicer 297X's , Today I had replaced the Turnsignals/Sidemarkers that were broken in the accident with new OEM units so the Jeep is back to 100% an Trail worthy again ! This weekend I am going to try to take it wheeling @ American Fork Canyon on the Mineral Wells and Forrest Lake trail's If I do not make it this week I will go on the 8th for sure while my Parents are in town visiting . ( I got my Step Father Hooked on wheeling )

Made it to the lake time for my son to get some lunch, Then head back home !
Somehow both P/S flares fell off, I looked for them on the way out since there is one way in and out But they were never found I wonder if one of the hikers or atv riders picked them up.
Just a little flex !
Keep in mind this section is wide enough for 1 Rig , there is a 150-200ft drop off the side an there is 2 way traffic on this section leading to the trailheads
