i was pissed off at first, but then i realized i would be getting insurance $$$

so had the dealership fix it, but told them to give me the money for the stock tupperware bumper(~$640)

soooo i ordered me a allpro bumper and a Tmax ew9000 with synthetic line. And since i couldnt use the stock skids with the allpro, i ordered the allpro diff and tranny skid plates :

since i had open diffs i thought it was time to put a rear locker in...
i didnt want to spend alot of money so i tried out a lockright, and so far i have no complaints

mounted my 60" hi-lift with the 4x racs and added a UWS toolbox on which i mounted my 4' firestik...




Rocklights...
used 6 wally world fog lights
and a blue sea fuse box which i mounted in the cubby hole behind the drivers seat
i wired it up to two switches(right and left side)
used switches from http://www.4x4mods.com/







rough wiring diagram i did on paint

got rid of the factory rear bumper and got the Marlin Crawler rear bumper:

added some IPF 968s with the 100w Bulbs and some cheapie autozone fogs:
added another blue sea 12 pin fuse block, but this time i mounted it under the hood.
the driving and fog lights are wired to this, as well as the cb, and my ipod adapter and whatever electronics come in the future.

Time for some new tires. i wanted to go bigger but didnt want to lift it anymore than 3"

so i cut...




then ordered a set of 33x12.50R15 Mickey Thompson Baja Claws from 4WP
so far i love the tires and they will probably me my next set as well...






i also had to trim the bottom rear corner of the rear fenderwells, no pics of that though. i also took off the chrome triming around the fender wells too.

I also had to replace the clutch, so I ended up going with the ACT street kit and i have been very pleased with it thus far. ...Sorry no pics of the instal either, i was kind of in a hurry to get it done.



As it sits now:




i have also mounted a 15lb ulitmate air co2 tank in the bed and made it so that it will flip up when the tailgate is down. i forgot to take pics of it when i did it, but ill take some when i remember.

Next up on the list:

fix and reinforce my tranny skid plate...
