Added N-Fab nerf bars so my 5 year old can climb in and out. Also ordered an addicted desert design front bumper and Rigid light bar.
Did you do this work at the Tupelo PD outpost?

Installed the Smittybilt x20 12000# whinch I ordered on Black Friday. I still need to install my power interrupt. I have the parts but I just got too chilled from laying on the ground. It's just hooked up to the battery for now. I have to say, bolting this on through three different holes from a tight spot inside the bumper wasn't a fast project. Patience was needed. I don't think I swore once!

I still need to go spool the line in while under tension. I'm not sure where I'll do it just yet? Looks like I'll be driving around looking for a place that has 100' of empty parking lot with some trees.

If you didn't swear, then I'm not sure you did it right.......

Outdoor work this time of year in Wisconsin? Seems like a space heater was needed...

It was 30°F with a very lite wind, so nearly summer like.

Added some gold to the Jeep today. Finally installed my 3.5” game changer.

They are stock 33” right this second waiting on the new wheels to get in but had the time available to do the lift. I was a little worried about it looking small. The new wheels and tires will be 37”s. I didn’t get the 6 packs went with the rock sports. They drive pretty well but only have about 30 miles on them as I finished this morning making sure all of the measurements were correct and then went to get an alignment check.

Checked out an early present to myself; the JeepsNeeds SAM-2, https://jeepsneeds.com/products/jeepsneeds-sam-for-hi-lift-jack.
It’s an adapter that ties the hi-lift jack to a shackle hanger, providing a positive connection btwn the jack and the bumper.

... and since the jack is captured by adapter, the lifting mechanism cannot drop to the ground once the jack is unloaded. Slick!

My day was simple. I put my New Vicious Off-road half doors together. This misty day here ends soon so I am going to put them on Sunday since the weather will be good through Friday next week.
