Installed this fire extinguisher mount using a rag and four zip ties. Probably should have used a black rag but oh well:

Not sure how long I’m going to leave it like this. But it covers me for now.

Installed a roam pioneer aluminum bumper. Took this pic when I was test fitting everything.

Dang it, Brett!

I’ve been on the “we’ll notify you when you can order” list for about 6 months now.

... Soon, February, March, we’re redesigning to fit more winches...

I know. I’ll contact Anthony for actual questions. But, is it finally available or are you working with a prototype?

This is still a preproduction model. I’m very local to them so that helps with communications. I think they have it just about dialed in. When I pull it off to install the winch, I might do a write up like Chris did to help everyone when they are released. I’m loving it though

I get it. And, Roam really needs some partners. They’re not going to win market share with their website, marketing or communication;).

Sweet products, Though!

Look forward to seeing the the pictures when the winch is installed.

Got new shoes! Went from 31s to 33s on my Sport. Changes the look dramatically, at least to me.
It’s my only vehicle. Road manners and mpg matter to me.
Gonna put Rubicon takeoff suspension on it, and that will be all, I reckon.

Sweet man, I would also like some details as @DickZip requested, looking to do this soon. I know it doesn’t have more horsepower, but does it feel like it does? Is more responsive off the line?

Got my 315/70/17s on that I took of my JK, including the trim on the spare tire (I put a backup camera there on the JK, so it was already done). Got my Rancho front diff skid on, and the rear Rock Hard control arm skids. For the life of me, I could not get the front ones on. Does anyone know if the tab is on the outside of the axle, or on the differential side. I’m going to try again the other way, but even at that, it looked to have interference with the FAD.

It looks great. I'm interested but can you still fit the freedom panels and the bag under the slipstream cover? I remove my panels often and put them in the back. It's a tight fit so I'm curious if they will still fit.
So, looks like freedom panels in the bag will not fit under the slipstream... I usually only take them off when I take the top off... and leave em’ at home, so it works for me. The slipstream does have an optional riser (so people can put mini fridges in and such) that MAY get the bag to fit, but I can’t speak on that if it actually will work for you.

Day 32

Well I thought I was done with electrical, but let's face it..... Are you ever done??

Routed rack lights through hard top using marine grade wire seal. Installed quick connect inside for when I remove top.

Installed ARB fridge and monitor. Ran out of space (ring terminals were stacking up and bending) on my terminal board for adding circuits to the continuously powered wire so I added a 3 socket cigarette lighter box. Plus I didn't want to hardwire ARB fridge monitor. I might use it in other vehicles. Monitor fit nicely just above dash, resting on dash and the adhesive mount adjusted to windshield angle.

If I have any issues with the very simple wire seal I can upgrade to Blue Sea Systems CableClam. It would use same hole, but would require 4 additional smaller holes to be made to anchor clam.

I don’t like most aftermarket bumpers but that one is nice!!!
I’m real hit or miss and wasn’t interested in anything besides something that allowed use of the factory fog lights. The dv8 I had prior for that bill but this is awesome. I cut the factory fog harness and spliced in the light harness. It’s nice and clean, led lights are bright as heck too.

I’ll add more pics once I set the winch in

Roam has got things figured out now and when you see their winch frame, it’s more like metal art that belongs in an engineering magazine that something covered up by the bumper
