Welcome! Strong impulsive tire buy. Man of my own heart. You have a great plan on the parts you have ordered. I have the ARB bull bar, weather tech and new AHC fluid as well. The ARB is obviously awesome but the weather tech have been a touch down too. Did you get the cargo mat as well? I just figured out the other day, you can take the plastic pieces off around where the third row clicks in, cut the mat to match the hole, then re-install the pieces for a clean and tight fit on the cargo mat. Again, probably common knowledge but I was quite happy to figure that out.

Yeah searched from Little Rock to OKC to STL and all points in between . Tong was actually closer then any of the others. It was so purdy I was almost intimidated about buying .
 
The ARB is pretty easy to get on so wouldn't wait for a winch to install it. Depending on the winch, you can install it without taking the bumper off. I know because I managed to get my winch in upside down and was able to remove and rotate it. with the bumper still on.

What winch did you go with ? It would be nice not having to remove the bull bar to get the winch on . Not basing my purchase on that but I will definitely go budget . Thinking the Smitty X20 waterproof or maybe a Engo , superwinch ect ...
 
Nice rig and welcome to 'Mud.
 
Smittybuilt XRC 9.5k with a synthetic rope. I don't anticipate using it a great deal and couldn't justify the extra cost. Here's to hoping I didn't get what paid for when it actually comes time to use it. The install is relatively easy once you figure out the directions with the bumper are designed for a Warm winch. A few less steps with the XRC.
 
Saw your post on the picture thread. The ARB looks great. How was the install?
 
ARB looks good! Tell me about the front mud flaps that you installed.
 
Funny thing, I used to hate that color back in the day, like, I'd curse it's very existence.

Fast forward 10 years, and, pardon my french, but I'd give my left nut for it.

And yes.. Those are running boards and 20's. Hey, it's her car until it reaches 100k and she picked out every mod.

IBWOZ - loving the ARB.

Here is a pick I found a while back and saved as future inspiration when it becomes my truck.

I know some roll their eyes at the color matched bumper .. But like you said - she's purdy - I'd try hard to keep her that way.

Nice ! While installing the Arb the thought of it matching the cladding crossed my mind . I gotta say it looks sharp and I'm usually not a big fan of the color matching . Thanks for the image .
 
It's got the gray interior. And she went with the bfg ko2 also. I will be down sizing the wheel and probably tire size too when it's mine. (She is running 35's to make up for the smaller side wall).

Who cares.. This is your build thread. I am enjoying your trucks transformation - keep it coming.

35's ! I thought they looked big but maybe some sort of an illusion because of the 20 inch wheels . Is the ahc on H in that pic ? If so hows the clearance on N ? Also what kind of mileage is she getting with those ?
