One more BUMP I guess................. :redbrick:

:bump2: :behindsofa:

 

[AddictedOffroad]

Bump for a new week, any updates for the '06-'09s?

Two 4th gens done. Working on the 3rd now. As soon as its done, the NY/NJ boys can go ahead and schedule your shipping via freight. You are the first three 4th gens besides BLight.

BLight1234 will be next up and hopefully ship by tomorrow afternoon.

All of the 3rd gens will ship today. That is Detuned, CACARBuff, Jigmo, & Coachnov.

Blight1234, you are shipping tomorrow. Bumper is done, but needed to bend up a couple brackets for the crossmember and it missed the Fed Ex truck.

Finally got the winch installed last night. I love the snug, clean fit and feels solid as a rock.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

was it easy to install with bumper on car?

4th gens will require clocking the disengagement knob to clear the grill. Otherwise its simple.

One thing I will will mention. We just installed the Superwinch LP8500 on a 4th gen on Friday. What looks like a removable solenoid box, isn't. We also had to clock it back 90* to clear the grill.

But, a legit remote solenoid winch will be easy to install. Just open the hood and you have all the room in the world to work.

I will work on getting some install instructions for the 4th gen guys up by Monday. Its a fairly labor intensive install to get the stock bumper off. But, once off, we will show you where to trim and move back A/C lines.

That is a great idea considering the majority of 4th gen owners spend their time plasti-dipping everything and waxing their trail pinstripes out.

I was pretty easy on my 3rd Gen. Once you open the hood and pop the grille off there's pretty good access. I bought the extra bracket that allows the control box to be mounted at an angle so it clears a vast majority of the grille. I only had to remove the bottom rung on the left sde whitch was super easy to cut off with a hacksaw blade.

Can you elaborate on the bracket and clearance? Any photos?

Here is the bracket I used and a few pics.

Just clears the grille guard on the left side


The winch clears the front bumper plate by no more than 1/8" when bolted down but gives a clean, fitted look.


You can see here that the control box will not lay flat without hitting the grille, but a little bit of angle is just enough to clear it.

Legit

Ha Ha Ha ....

Made my day -

Thanks!

Excellent, thanks [MENTION=106327]GVL[/MENTION].
Looks like a Satoshi modded grill would not have the same clearance problem, just the plastic frame at the bottom

Test fitted the bumper before paint. Certainly looks bad ass and is really beefy. I'm glad I purchased this one over others, I just didn't like the delay. All in all, that's the only complaint. It sure is a great, quality piece no doubt.
