Been busyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy today!! My first day off in a while AND I did 20hrs OT last week = $$$$$$$

Did my winch.

WARN VRS 9500lb Synthetic rope:


Did my Extended brake lines.


My front TAF Skid plate arrived. Easy to install. Looks great! My phone corrupted the images though so I'll have to take more later on.

Had a little bit of a play:


Hopefully before the week is up I'll have some new springs in the front, some recovery points bolted onto my bull bar and my rear shock sliders on.

The springs I have atm are fine, but they are 40mm lift, and with a bull bar (80kg) winch (50kg) and aux battery (20kg), the lift is virtually lost in the front so I've ordered fomr 60mm lift front springs. To be continued!

they're nice arches, did you have to trim them much as I guess they're SJ ones?
