Time for an update

First thing was I installed a manual transfer case and different floor console.

Moved the cb into the ashtray spot

I then ordered 2 winches. A 9,500# Smittybilt XRC with synthetic for the bumper and a 4,500# champion to go out the back as an emergency. I also swapped it to synthetic. My rear winch comes from behind the license plate so I had to make a bracket




Then I had to cut my winch opening back open since it has been plated

I then had to move my light bar so I moved it up into the grill

Needed to upgrade power so I got a 230 amp singer alternator

Then all this stuff for the big 3

All mounted

All wired and spooled up


Loaded it up to go mess around


Some shots. It did great & other than some new scratches and rolling the fender in the rear where I wasn't trimmed back far enough I didn't have any problems





iMovie trailer I put together.

Wow, really mean rig. Nice photos and video, that's some serious off roading.

Thanks. I don't know if I would call it "serious" off roading. More intermediate.

I like the hidden winch. Good job all around. Where did you get the 230 amp alternator?

The alternator came from Singer. I bought it from another member but it is a direct replacement. Also includes an extra smaller pulley to put out 30-40 more amps at idle. Contact I was told over there was Mike.

Upgraded leaf springs, much better with no block, shackle or AAL.



Then I upgraded my switches, they come on with the dash lights which is nice.
