After purchasing the new OME lift, ARB Bumper, lights & wheels & tires the only thing to do this weekend was throw it all on!
Started with the OME lift:
Then came the task of removing the bull bar and the bumper. Unfortunately at some point in time someone had actually welded the bull bar bracket to the frame and then a bolt that was halfway through the frame to the bracket. In the process of cutting the bolt, the sawzall bounced off the bolt and punctured the radiator...oh what fun.
After the radiator mishap, we got to work cutting off the frame ends to get the ARB bumper slapped on.
I also swapped out the chinsey plastic connectors for the turn signals that ARB provides with some nice waterproof ones.
Got the bumper on later that night and the lights wired up on Sunday morning and now she's all done! Total transformation over one weekend.

I'll have some better pictures in a few days, but all that's left is an alignment and a radiator and this thing is ready to roll!
