I need to buy a couple more hose clamps to add to the resi line run. Did you get the rears done nick?
Bomar- I have only had them on overnight and my rear away is off. To tell you the truth, the ome nitro sports I just took off aren't too different upon messing around the gravel roads by the house, they are the firm. I found them way to firm and the profenders seems to soften it up a little. I think the timbrens take the edge off a little as well, but first impressions of profenders I like.

Breaking something or fixing something
Some of those pics must be optical illusioning me cause I fear a little for the life of your reservoirs and lines.
Sent from my iPhone using IH8MUD while navigating gnarly trail. Typos are inherent.
the reservoirs in the front seem vulnerable when looking at them, but are protected from impact from the recovery bracket and where it is positioned (behind the front of the arb bracket. so in all sense, it can't take a hit from the bottom, or from the front. I can see extreme cases where being off camber and sliding into something on the side might hit them, but it would have to be just the right size to not by missed by the tire and slip just under the bull bar. a tree stump sticking out would be a good example actually. I'm not comfortable with the mounting options, keeping in mind 35's pack that wheel well tight.
The rears I am unhappy with the positioning of the reservoirs. the lines don't interfere with the spring, but I don't want to take that chance. I think i'll drill and tap mounting plates on the rear cross member on the frame (ahead of the spring perches. There is a lot of room, just need to ensure the exhaust doesn't melt the line either. I've seen some reservoirs mount in front of the tire and tucked on the frame rail protected by the sliders.. like I said, I have to re-evaluate and open to suggestions.
on a related note, I had to grind down my timbren mounting perch. it comes trimmed from the factory, but my 35's (with a spacer) still rub when flexing out.. I don't need that expensive little piece of rubber ripped out or worse, cutting my sidewalls.
Looks nice! Esp with your color combo. I'm gonna do the same this summer.
Upgraded my battery to a group 31 Diehard Platinum with Slee tray. I just need to locate a boot for the positive terminal. These batteries are going for $235 right now...

I replaced all the speakers with 2ohm Iinfinity reference speakers. I forgot
To photograph the front. But I followed Skshepherd's thread here. Used 3m trim tape to mount the new tweeters. Sounds better to my ear.
This ones more of a tease. But this 3 month long project is finally 98% complete.

With a break in the weather, I finally installed a Doug Thorley Cat-Back exhaust system. Nice sound, and the driver seat dyno says it's much peppier.
Finally updated the rear emblem on the hatch a year or two after I bought it. Took it down to my favorite bodyshop and they put it on for free.
I've been looking to do that exact thing. Any information on the seat and the mounting setup would be great.
