A few update pics.

Been busy with work and life but was able to get the Wilderness roof rack mounted as well as the HID lights mounted. They are not wired in yet. Also installed a set of 33x10.50x15 BFG MT's. Replaced both motor mounts and all the hoses and belts and a change of all the fluids. I still have to go through the front axle assy.
