The Lift:
It took a buddy and myself about 4 hours mostly driven by anticipation. I think it turned out pretty well and the install wasn't all that hard to do considering I never installed a lift before. I used some of the install directions on this forum that were very well put together. I went with the OME mediums all the way around with 285/70R17 Hankook Dynapro RT03's. I am greatly pleased with the results!!

After with the Trail Gear rock sliders installed:


Update 11/20/2009: The OME 885 were great for a while, but I wanted something adjustable. Toytec make a great affordable adjustable coilover.


My homemade radiator protection. Just a little security from hidden debris. This will get me by until I can afford some real skids.



And now for my favorite. My Scuba Driver mod. I followed Shadow-Warriors write up for this here SCUBA Driver Transmission, Transfer Case, Rear Differential & E-Locker Breather MOD
I placed mine on the passenger side and fabricated a bracket to accommodate three spectre filters.


Updated 10/27/2008: Picked up some steelies for 150 bucks with the stock Bridgestones on Craigslist. I mounted my Hanny's on them:

Added the Bandi mount, 3' firestick, and Cobra75wxst:

Update 11/20/2009: Finally got around to getting my hands on an Expedition One front bumper.

See ya!!
