Looks great I had a CJ 7 same color with the white wheels. It was a black top back then. Biggest mistake I made was selling it.

The Jeep needs a wash. I’ll take better shots when the weather improves.

There's only one com cable that gets eliminated by introducing the unreliability of wireless...
Buy the one that has the best features for you, but happy with my VOS. Super easy install, more switches, no flash, and servicable. Again, buy what you like, but my install (and I am a dummy) was super clean and easy.
Good luck, have fun.

My new 3" x 30' Tow Strap just arrived from Amazon. Definitely worth the $28 shipped price! The Kinetic Rope and Soft Shackles should be here later in the week.

First off, nice Jeep you've got there!

You might want to consider a complete hinged tailgate reinforcement with adjustable carrier. I had the Teraflex Alpha HD, but the 38x13.5 spare was causing some creaking and noticeable sag at the hinges. I recently replaced it with the Cavfab Elite carrier. It's so much more solid and quiet now.

Thanks. I have run 37s on stock rims for about a year now with just relocation bracket and hard rock tailgate support bracket. Had to adjust the tailgate stopper thing so it sits tight and no rattle so I’m thinking just the HD mount be enough...it’s about 20 pounds heavier on this setup I think. Sigh Decisions decisions.

Well, I can definitely attest to how great the Alpha HD was. Only reason I veered away, is because it's taken them longer than originally planned to release the complimenting reinforcement.

Finally installed the wpngear mount with carbine kit. (Carbine not included.)
have you been rock crawling with that in place? I am curious as to how it would hold up off roading?

I add a strap to augment the buffer tube clamp because having a rifle fall on my lap doesn't sound like fun. The quickfist and the steel is solid.

Lol. I’ve had my Voswitch for a couple years now. The point of my post was actually to point out that install was very easy (only one more wire than a “wireless” unit)...

Or maybe you were just adding to my reply to the OP?...

Complete with in-cab winch controls and a pair of high power USB ports added:

so does a clip get in the way of anything? I was looking to add this to my must do list...
