Thanks for the input! It's interesting, didn't think a spot-light would be a favorite. I was initially looking for some floods to shine to the sides, but these KCs just look soo nice.

Like you, I prefer the look of the early style. But the later style mirrors are just so much easier to use.

I've had the issue since buying it stock. A Warn M8000 has a max amp draw of 435 amps, so it makes sense that the battery would be drained with a 117 amp alternator. In my case, it's draining much quicker than on my previous vehicles, going down to ~10 volts shortly after beginning to winch...

How thick is that roof, 22 gauge !?

I couldn't give you any concrete info, but this is something I need to look into as well. My dash voltage gauge drops significantly during winching, and I'm not sure whether the alternator or the old battery is the issue.

Is your current alternator not keeping up?

I haven't heard of this problem either. Any modern car should be able to get through an automatic car wash, no issues. Now pointing a pressure washer directly at the fusebox/PCM is a different story, no amount of grease will help you.

I've yet to learn the technical aspect of outboarding. It just seems like in an area where fractions of an inch matter, a major change like an axle swap/tire upgrade would radically shift the shock position/angle. But now it seems like repositioning the new lower shock mount properly is all...

Comments like this get me reinterested in an outboard every time. Seems like heck of an upgrade for something that's ~ 1/3 the cost of the midarm upgrade. I'll ask the group this, since we've been derailed anyway. Is there a precedent for keeping an outboard after an axle swap? Say I outboard...

His last couple messages have been more concrete. By the sound of it, the general design is the same with some minor changes due to the new dies. I think Flux’s bumper is a solid contender. Probably what I’ll go with once my axles are done.

I have received that same exact timeline 3 times over the past several months.

Key phrase there.. Most miss it.

The way I see it, if the angle difference is as insignificant as JJ says, there’s no reason to postpone the outboard. You already have the shocks. Just my 2 cents.

Thanks, that question has been at the back of my mind for some time now. @JMT we were talking about exactly this the other day.

That’s what I was thinking as well. This was Trevlaw’s ROTM pic. Safe to say most of us aren’t doing this with our TJs 🫣

So does this angle difference come from the need to position your shock perpendicular to the lower CA, the angle of which changes when going to a midarm?

@Trevlaw and @NashvilleTJ are two that come to mind that’ve found the limits of a 2.0 shock.

JK case, but still a good price.

I see they migrated onto your LJ. How do you like them?
