Recieved my Outback Adventures Trailgater table today. Shipping took less than a week, including the holiday.
Packed very well.

@DV8Offroad Hinge Steps get installed by the local OffRoad shop on Friday, after I mangled the door bolts a few weeks ago.
@lodoffroad Destroyer bumper, tire carrier and goodies arrives on Friday, along with the Rigid Industries Flush mount Dually Flood Lights.
@Quadratec black lugnuts arrive on Friday. These are for the Onyx AEV Saltas (and Yellow Caps!) I'm installing in February.
Then it will be a dry patch for big mods until July as I save for the 2.5 inch AEV Dual Sport RT Suspension System, BFG KM3s 37s and a Warn Zeon 10-S and Warn Winch Carrier for the Mopar Steel Bumper.

@DV8Offroad Hinge Steps FINALLY installed. These are not a seamless mirror image fit on the hinges, but they came with sleeves to improve the fit.
No one is really making them yet that fit perfectly.
I'm happy with the quality, but once the Jeep is lifted and with larger tires that step will be pretty high up.

Rigid Lights arrived, but the @lodoffroad bumper and tire carrier don't arrive until Monday.
I'll be using these flushmount lights in the bumper, and I haven't decided if I'll wire them into the tail lights or the trailer harness.

Last night I received my FlatPit. I bought this for Overlanding, and expect to use it as a grill/oven/firepit/cooktop.
This is an extremely well built piece of kit, and if you are looking for an outdoor cooking /firepit, I highly recommend this one.

As a late Christmas present, I received an ORIS Skottle. If you aren't familiar, it's a propane stove under a disk shaped cooking surface made of cast iron.
My stock of Overlanding gear is reaching completion!

I started the installation process for the @lodoffroad bumper and tire carrier tonight by removing the rear steel bumper. Destroyer and tire carrier will go on tomorrow.
No need to post an installation video or set of pictures. @lodoffroad has excellent installation videos on their website.

Finished the installation of the @lodoffroad Destroyer Bumper, tire carrier, Jerry can mounts, trail basket, Hi-Lift Jack Mount and Antenna Mount.
If you are on the fence about @lodoffroad bumpers, I whole heartedly recommend their products.
Design, Build Quality, shipping, Customer Service are all First Class. I couldn't be happier.

3 of 5 New wheels finally arrived! Next two are scheduled to arrive tomorrow.
@Northridge4x4 shipped from 2 different warehouses, so the last 2 will take one more day.
I'm so excited. I love these AEV Salta wheels so much, I can't wait to get them installed.
I'll continue to run the stock BFG All-Terrains until June or July when I have the lift and tires put on.
Planning on Cooper STT Pro 37x12.50x17.
Right now planning an AEV 2.5 Suspension, but not yet at 100% on that. Plenty of time for more research.

Went to @Discount Tire this morning, and had the AEV Saltas installed with the stock tires. Some side shots and front and back, to answer the questions, "Do they fit?" And "How much do they stick out?"
Yes, they do, and not that much.

Bumper, lights, spare finally all installed. Need to work out the rear view camera, but all in all, it's a solid build

All that remains is the AEV suspension lift and 37s.

I got the back up camera worked out. If you run "JK " wheels, the back up camera housing from LOD will not fit in the hub of the wheel.
My solution was to get a small PVC sleeve, and put a longer bolt into the camera housing. It worked, and now I've got the back up camera functional again.
