shadetree 5,869 Posted March 1, 2020 splash guards all on, headlight on, tires washed, but not painted, i'm deciding if i want to just leave them alone this time ?. waiting on some parts, air filter, rear rack, still have to install bottom skid plate, run some tubing for the front and rear differentials. side covers need painting. but here she is in mock up stage so far !. last pic is with light bar all wired up, and all lights on in my dark shop. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
