What winch did you go with, any idea how you were sitting before? Whats the height at the passenger rear?

So, I did a little better job of measuring yesterday
Passenger side
Front: 21.5
Rear: 23
Driver Side
Front: 20.5
Rear: 22
Before the winch, the rear was the same but the front was about 1/2" higher.
I suspect that I'm on 250 coils... not the OME stock height that was advertised when I bought this rig. I also suspect that the drivers and passenger side coils need to be reversed.

Might be anti rattle, slides onto a sheet metal ear.... Maybe?I found this stuck in my sunroof drain hole. You guys have any idea what it is?

So, do you think it slides onto a piece of sunroof sheet metal? (I was thinking that but didn't see any obvious spot for it) Any idea where to look?

My tiny little brain can't place it, that's just what it looks like.... Good luck

Haha, I know! I look at it and think "I should be able to figure out where this goes!". Thanks man.

I looked at it and it looks (dimension wise) like the bumper that is in the track a third of the way back from the front (pic below). Maybe there is a similar bumper in the rear that the sunroof comes up against when it is fully open?

Except that the piece from yours has a little slot in it... I went over the entire visible track area (when the sunroof is open) and didn't see anything that matched your piece exactly. My guess is that it came from further back out of view.
The bumper a third of the way back is about even with the front edge of the roof glass on the first push (when closing from fully open position) of the open/slide back rocker switch. Perhaps it is supposed to stop rattles when the roof is in that partially open position? Not sure.

^^I would like to see pics of installed product when done, thats a great idea, doesn't add a lot of weight like full rear bumper.

Those were actually the side of my front bumper. BUT, I've got some ideas going for how I want to do my rear when the time comes. Long story short, Rich can build anything. And anything he builds is quality!

It warmed up from all the below 0 weather and has been over 50 degrees (day and night) for 2 days now. Over 2 feet of snow is all melted. The warm weather and snow melt has created intense steam fog. This gave me the opportunity to play with my lights! Driving home last night, I have roughly 6 feet of visibility beyond my hood. I pulled into a parking lot and grabbed some pictures of how the amber/yellow fog lights work in... well, fog!
You can see that they don't light up the fog much at all:

These as in wings ? Or bumpers? Those are the wing sections prior to mating to the center section in that pic.

Pics of lighting seldom do justice..i might have to get a set of those for my front bumper.

Oh, I thought for some reason those were the wings that bolted up to the center of the factory frame. I wasn't paying close enough attention...
