Wow, Lance and Cam did a great job on that. Interesting concept on the fender protection. So was there a tire clearance issue with the rear spare on the door and the new bumper? What winch did you put in? Looks like they closed the top of front bumper.
I'll have to get back with them for the production run. I've been waiting.

Thanks first off.
Fran,
There were no clearance issuses with the new bumper and stock spare location. I just wanted a swingout for when I go 6" and 37's. I am running the Superwinch 9K. There are two holes in the top one for the freespool lever and the other to watch the line spool. They remote mounted the remote harness to drivers side on the top of the bumper. Soon I will be installing an incab winch control for easier use. Oh and what the photos do not show are the full BudBuilt Skids underneath. Also we need to get together and go wheeling with these things.
I took it out to Crozet this last weekend and had a blast with it!!!!

I know you have the skids. Last month or so I saw your FJC at Iron Pig. That was the day I picked up my Bud Built skids from them. As you probably seen, we were up at Crozet a couple weeks ago for the trail clearing. Since then I've been on the phone with Bud discussing improvements with the t/c skid. Are you using the little square taps (spacers) under the frame rail to allow clearance for the exhaust crossover? If you are you need to do some re-inforcing because you will bend the plate. I am also using the additional crossmember Bud offers for the t/c skid. Bud will be changing future shipments and will send some improvements if you call him.
