I was going to wait until she is completely done, but I decided I am very happy with the Hundy how she sits, so I will hold off on bigger tires and sliders. I am going to take her on the trail next weekend as she sits right now.

Here are some Before Pics:

and NOW:

To come:
33"s and sliders. But it will be a while, very happy with her as she sits.

Side note:
I had to replace my 3rd row seats to get my AHC rear pressures back into spec, taking off the roof rack and steps and cranking up the TB's for the heavier bumper really took a lot of weight off the rears.
So one future justification to go ahead and add sliders are to keep the AHC in spec, but for now, I am happy with having the seats to provide weight back there.
The airbags are empty at this time, so not much more I could do but add weight (so I think).

That looks $%*#ing great! Love the body-matched Dissent bumper.

Thanks. The bumper is great. Very high quality and I took full advantage of the high quality rust protective coating he is offering.

As for the color, I was going to talk about it in some of the specific threads, but I messed up the color matching so I had to buy some 070 Lexus paint and paint over the white areas on the bumper. Easy squeezy since it was already painted, but a pain since I didn't realize it until after I had it installed.

As for as the bumper, it is light weight and has a 12K lbs winch back there, so I "feel" I can go anywhere by myself and I am not taking as big a risk. More importantly, I can take my family out and not get stranded (I know it is still possible, but my goal is to minimize the risk).
