Are those OEM headlights or did you go with aftermarket clears?
Are you running stock CV axles? Any breakage?

I replaced all my light housings with Depo brand. They have been great and the beam is pretty good even with my LED headlight bulbs
99 head lights and corners along with crystal clear turn signal housings
That lift makes those tires look tiny!
I know right!!! Look stupid small
I need to decide if I want a set of trail wheels with 305-70s or keep my 16x8s and powder coat them white with 305-70s. Either way gonna regear to 4.56 or 4.88

stock CV's and broke nothing. My driver-side CV didnt even have any grease in it because the boot tore and it all left. It's all about picking the right line and not advancing when you feel them bind.

How long have you had them? I'm trying to decide if I want Depo brand or TYC. Seems like mixed reviews of both on Amazon.
Im in the process of regearing to 4.88. it's actually in the shop right now. I'm on 255/85/16. I'm hoping I didn't go too low. I'm pretty heavy as is, and when I go camping it's even more heavy.

Good to know. I'm considering get some lotus axles, but honestly don't know if I will go on extreme stuff that would prompt me to have them. More into overlanding type stuff.

Don't need them unless you're really looking to do some heavy rocks. Plus more likely to blow your diff up unless you're locked up front. OEM's are really good. Just carry a spare or two Napa's in the trunk with lifetime warranty; makes it a lot cheaper than Lotus Axles.
I'm getting an ARB in the front installed along with gears as we speak. I highly doubt that I will do anything crazy and understand that a locker up front is questionable. I'm setting it up for overland type stuff on back country dirt roads and you never know what your going to come across. I doubt I will even use the front locker much. Perhaps I will just buy a backup and the tools needed to replace on trail if need be. Thanks for the info, nice rig btw!

That's awesome. Definitely would love to know how you like them. I'm hesitant to just go for 4.88 as I do a lot of highway cruising (55+ miles a day) going back and forth between work, school, and home.
I've had them since mid February with no issues with them at all. I should have changed the bumper mount turn signal seals with the stock ones as I occasionally notice some condensation. Changing to the stockers should end this as the new one is not long or thick enough to seal properly. Other than that I love them. I also picked up a used set of the old depo clear tails on craigslist and they are awesome as well

Bumpity-bump. If you have a natural white runner and you want to show it off — this thread is for you. Doesn't have to be fancy or anything either — stock is cool too.
