- I'm like Horse Dookey: I'm all over
Sorry for the low detail, but , these are iPhone Pictures. I'll post up some real nice quality pictures tonight. After looking at the front end with the Fascia still attached, I decided it all needed to go! Stock bumper and brackets were mashed bad by the last owner rear-ending a car in a parking lot. A little 4lb persuasion got things straight, and the backbone bolted right up! The Warn 8274-50 is mounted to a Detorus Backbone system modified to mount said winch.
And, as a bonus, the $250 winch worked right off the bat - no BS necessary. Wired right up to the side post terminals on my Optima Yellow Top too.
Still to-do:
Front: Aussie Locker and Brakes
Rear: Yukon Axles, Lock Right and Brakes. Hitch and custom Mud Flaps too
Engine: Electric Fan Bypass-activation switch & Possibly a super-secret engine cooler as well!
Painted Backbone:
Side view with trimmed off fenders:
Front-ish view:
Note it does stick up over the hood a bit, but, it's a secure feeling seeing that winch perched out there! Bonus with the Rusty's HD suspension is the front end has not lost much ride height, and, due to the HD package including higher rate springs for the front for carrying a winch/bumper, it's almost level now. :yelclap:

Jeep with stuff on it. (F/R tow points now too. Can I come play with y'all now???)
