BEFORE AND AFTER MODS PICS

[JLRoachicon]

I"m going to respectfully request that you change your wheels: those are the same ones that are on my daughter's '21 GM Sport S and no 2 vehicles are allowed the same wheels!

It can’t be true if there aren’t pictures. Hahaha. Since mine is a 19, I will have to respectfully decline.
I was first.

Awesome build! Just had a curiosity, what did you change to the suspension and what tire size are you running?

Now I have EVO enforcer 2inch and 35s KO2s

Dah. I should have done this a lot sooner.

Before (stock plastic bumper):

After (Rubicon, stubby w/ 10K winch):

Now to find even better backdrops. The driveway just doesn't cut it.

You did do this a lot sooner…….post #69…?

#69 was stock Michelin 31's to lift and 35's.
#96 was stock plastic bumper to Rubicon stubby with Warn 10K winch.

BTW, ran Wheeler Lake Trail with a couple US Forest Service Rangers today performing trail maintenance, (we drilled and added a second winching post on the north side of the V-notch). I chided some other Jeepers with us to try the obstacles Flopper and the V-notch without their lockers. While some tried and some succeeded, others struggled or outright refused. It's kinda cool to do stuff in a Sport with open diffs that some Rubi drivers just won't even contemplate trying without their lockers.

I'm not really saying anything (either good or bad), except having a winch certainly helps me tackle more difficult challenges that others would only attempt with their lockers engaged.

I'm loving the extra confidence I now have in doing even more of the technical stuff.

Regardless, kudos to the skilled spotters that I know are the true heros of this sport. Success is completely dependent on them. But it's way cool to see the joy of them watching a fellow Jeeper in a Sport tackle the tougher stuff.

With all humbleness, I know it's the skill of the driver more so than the capabilities of the equipment that brings satisfaction to the heart. But this winch (even though I still haven't needed it) allows me to consider things in a much different light.

I'm really enjoying that it's now there.

When I turned 16 all I wanted was a lifted Wrangler, 20 years later I can honestly say it’s been worth the wait!
