i love the jeep so far drives great not a huge fan of tan interior though!.
 
got my hitch today and ordered the driver side nut-strip online. so i have a stack of parts in the garage that i need to make time to install.

front tow hooks w/brackets and front stock skid ~ thanks Fatcat

rear draw-tite hitch ~ thanks Dewey

now im on the hunt for a tank skid and some kind of belly skid.
 
nice clean heep - did it come w/ the stock hitch? i'll trade u my ez lift for your stock one! need it to fit around the skidrow gas tank skid plate! nice heep - i'll help if i can on your build-up
 
that would be ok with me im planning on skidding it so well so i can stay low and not worry to much. worse comes to worse i can always run a spacer and a shackle just depends on how it runs at that height.
Shiny!

FYI, if you get a 2" lift and put all that armor on, you'll probably be back down to 1" lift. That stuff is heavy.

no i picked up a draw tite unit yesterday. with all the c4c cars in the yard im sure you can get a stock unit rather easily.
did it come w/ the stock hitch?
 
picked up a gas tank skid today ~ thanks XCM!

now gotta modify it to fit. its a pre 96 model skid. i feel a fabrication and install day coming! sweet!

btw: im on the hunt for rock sliders and a transfer case skid or belly skid.
