    Slee or Delta on the back end?

    The powder coating on SLEE bumpers is extremely high quality. 15 yrs, 75k miles on mine and it's still in great condition. Zero blemishes or issues. I can't comment on others, no experience outside ARB or Kaymar.

    Have you installed and used these? Any info you can provide from longer term use and reliability? This appear to be a great option for an 80 upgrade from the stock alternator that is plug and play.

    Changing the Motor Mounts

    I second this solution and upgrade. I've broken two driver side mounts, both in the field. Fan hits shroud, all kinds of bad noises. If the vehicle is used off road, particularly using 4lo it's just a matter of time when it will fail and it will fail. Lower gears, H55, etc all likely to...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    @MileHigh80Guy I put 315/75 Yoko X-AT on my 80 last August. After all the strong positive reviews and experiences from guys in the 60 & 80 forums here running the Yokohama MT I figured the X-AT should be a great tire too and hold up well on and off road. I had been looking for an aggressive AT...

    Tall skinny tires

    Great choice, looks excellent! I've been running the Toyo R/T Pro in the 35x11.5 /17 size on my '06 Power Wagon and really liking this tire a lot. Some great narrower size options too outside of the normal variant which is nice to see. I wish the load rating on the narrower sizes was closer to...

    What Did You Do with Your 80 This Weekend?

    I just replaced my old OME stabilizer with a new OME unit. Old one had ~60k miles, it was toast. New made a noticeable difference. SLEE had them in stock, a couple others were out of stock when I was buying.

    80 series underbody water tank

    Yes they are called Flexitanks and out of Australia typically. I am not sure if they are still in production or not but I have one. Great use of space and very effective and simple water storage hidden behind the rear cargo panel.
