Well, I'm just about done adding to this rig. Time to go have some fun with it.

Here's a list of things I've done so far:

2008 lux w/adv package
Ebony Interior
Sunroof
Nav
Factory UCP, rockrails, mudder floor mats, front mud flaps, Brush guard, color matched front grille
Removed Factory Chrome mirrors and handles
Real Wheels locking fuel Door
Silverstar headlight upgrade
Tinted front windows (matched rear factory tint)
GOBI Stealth Rack w/ sunroof opening
GOBI Cargo Buckle System
PIAA 2100 drive (front of rack)
PIAA 2100 Yellow Fog (rear of Rack)
SuperChips Power Programmer
DayStar Dash Panel
levoguage
35" TOYO MT's (Summer setup)
OEM Silver Alloy(removed Chrome) 35" BFG AT's (winter setup)
Rancho 9000xl rear shocks
Bilstien Cognito front shock with extended bumpstops
Tbars cranked to 24.00"
Purple Cranium rear diff protection
Bouder Acc. Rear shock mount sliders
Boulder Acc. Front Winch Bumper
MileMarker Wich

I just added the winch bumper.
I think it cleans up the front end pretty good.

The opening on the DRSD give you access to the winch drum. You can get your whole arm in there anyhow. That's also where the lever is to freespool the winch, so it's protected....but easli accessible. The only thing I did not like about it was the roller fairlead that came with it and I wish the winch was a WARN. it came with the Milemarker SE9500C.

You'll also noticed that I have the older skidplate int eh front. The 08 skidplate will not fit with this bumper AND the 08 skidplate does sit lower that the older year's did.

I also decided to re-organize my tools and recovery. I had sooooo much crap I didn;t need in there. In teh H2, I had that truck vault, so I had a ton of room. Well now with this H3, there is nowhere near the room, and I was sick of listing to everything clunk around in the back when wheeling.


So picked up some tool wraps and took out all the bs I didn;t need.

Tim, I'd think the front end would clean up a bit more with the Boulder license plate mount that you have and use the Daystar Winch Hook thingy underneath to conceal the hook under the plate: http://www.daystarweb.com/productdetail.php?productID=798


Then throw on some Synthetic cable to remove some weight and maybe one of these: http://www.daystarweb.com/productdetail.php?productID=832

They sit in pretty close to stock. This was the first set XD Addict Wheels available from 4WP. They have a 5.75 back space to them with a possitive offset.
