She is mostly stock but she does have some custom parts. The front bumper looks like it was designed for flat towing the vehicle as it has various electrical connections for hooking it up to the hitch and tow vehicle, as well as two pins to hook up the towbar bolted in the bumper. It also has a receiver for the winch it came with as seen here. The winch is a Warn x8000i.
The interior
There is also a toggle switch for the winch inside.
Custom bumper in the rear that the tire rack sways out. it also has a power connection for the winch that is tucked away behind the tire. So if it gets stuck (which I am sure it will) I can pull it out forwards or backwards.
The tires are brand new 31x10.5R15LT General Grabber AT2's mounted on black powder coated 15" wheels. One of the pleasant surprises, which she had many, was the Old Man Emu NitroShocks. The rest of the suspension as far as I can tell is stock.
But I thought I would save the best for last, and this is what makes it totally awesome. When I purchased her the odometer read 30,444 miles.
When I inspected her at the dealership she was clean top to bottom. The only rust, which my mechanic found when he looked at it, was on the oil pan however he said that she was well taken care of. She has a new steering box, radiator, and ABS sensors.
She is not without issues though. She will need new coil spring isolators and bump stops for the front as they are cracked like a dry lake bed. The boots of the steering linkage are old and leaking grease, so the drag link and tie rod ends will need to be replaced as I do not know how long this has been going on. Sometimes it takes some effort to crank the engine over so it might be the fuel filter, throttle body, or clogged injectors. Other than that she looks great and runs great.
