Does your winch guard make contact with the winch?
No, not at all. There is plenty of clearance between the two.

This isn't the greatest view, but it shows the gap.

Finally - I was able to get the spare mounted on the tailgate!
I had put the Mopar Tailgate Reinforcement Bracket and the Rough Country Relocation Bracket on a while back, but the tire did not set against the rubber snubbers due to the shallower back spacing of the new wheels. So this weekend, I found some Daystar Extended Bumpers for the tailgate and whoala - it worked! No rattles - no bouncing!

This week I installed a new 30" light bar from Sierra LED on the cowl with brackets from Rough Country. I am really pleased with how well they fit, especially since I used products from 2 different manufacturers. Unfortunately, I can't light them up yet because I am still waiting for the new Trigger Six Shooter Controller.

Last week the Jeep went to AFE Power in Corona, CA to test fit their new Momentum GT Pro 5R Cold Air Intake. Looks great! 20180603_155226.jpg

While we were there, we decided to add their new MACH Force-XP Hi-Tuck 2-1/2" Cat-Back Exhaust System. This thing sounds mean and I could instantly feel a difference in acceleration and pick-up.

Thank you. I agree - I love amber lights and this bar is amber, but is available in white or amber.

@bdog I appologize for not answering your question - I did not see it till just now.
No, the winch guard does not touch the winch. There is a good 2 inches of clearance between the two.

This is the best photo that I have.

How are you liking your Patagonia tires? I pick up my 38's on thursday.
I really like them. I have about 3500 miles on them so far, and they seem to be wearing pretty well. They are the quietest MT I have ever run on a rig. This past weekend was my first chance to get them offroad and they performed exceptionally. I'm looking forward to many more miles with them!
