I can see it's well made, and it looks much better in the pictures with the lift but I have to ask, what made you decide on a pre-runner style bumper for a UK truck?

Surely that hoop is just adding weight.  I can't see a need for it for the kind of drivin' we get over here.

no its a cool jeep but the front bar looks like a bit of garden furniture stuck on the front the d links look way too heavy for the rest of it you made it nice but it looks puny are you going to put a three foot lift on it to get some aproach angle back other than that its great

Same reason I went with the 5.5 Rubicon Express lift and the MTR's. I have less than a year left here and the next place it will be going is 5 hours from moab. The bumper isn't finished, I still need some more bracing and to add the winch plate.

Fair enough.

By the way............personally, I like the wheels, always fancied a set of them.

haha. hey elvis why do you think all the west coast rock jeeps look like that? Maybe the same reason all the jeeps overhere look the same on 31" mud terain tires and close in heavy steel bumpers?? Cause it works. I've built over a dozen close in bumpers for your mates over here, just went for a different look.

Chris, those wheels are BAD, if you can get over the BLING factor. There nice and thick at the lip, they have a fake beadlock look to them that has extra material added there. Got them all delivered from the states for about 300 quid.

I think it looks different from the norm and pretty good.
It has to stick from the front for the winch?

Pre runner/hoops have there place over here to, not just for rocks.

I think the front bumper and stinger will look more balanced with a winch sitting on it and when the lift is finally on, at stock height it's just weird.

I like the look of the lift, it makes those 33s looks small  :D

I want to see it out and flexing, you need to get to Tixover or somewhere with some rocks.

I want to see what design you come up with for a rear bumper and carrier - you may have an immediate order  :wink:

What shocks did you go for, the RE ones?

Cheers, J

Well JamesH I'll hopefully have it on the road in a couple of weeks, need to get my SYE installed and order the driveshaft wed or thurs.

Heres a pic of a bump thats similar to the one I'm going to do. I'm going to have my tire higher and at the same angle as the rear window as well as a couple of jerry cans.

As far as shocks I went with the PORC ones. 125 for all 4, couldn't beat the price. Prob upgrade to the blistein 5150's later.
