I thought about doing that with my TJ, but for some reason I decided against it and I can't remember why, it's still looks good though.

Thanks it took alot of thinking but as i could not find a YJ where i live i had to open my search more and figured a TJ could still pull off the look. I was looking for a jeep this past november and once i found this Sahara TJ i jumped on it cause my plan was to get the project done for this summer, Most people dont even notice the diffrence i still get thumbs ups/ people trying to take pics of it or yelling JURASSIC PARK! at me =)

Anyway just a small update. i got lights on my bar installed and new fog lights on the bumper.

That TJ still looks sweet as hell though. It makes me drool, and it makes my wife shake her head and sigh then say, "Geek."

Thanks i plan on maybe trying to fit a CB in it but not sure, was going to do a winch but they said something about my bumper not being right or somthing ? i dont know he did say if i want to put one on it for looks i could but if i ever went to tow anything its prob not a good idea so i figured it was just a waste of money if i could never use it......if that time came. & Geeks have more fun LOL =)

if you want a winch i would get a ARB bumper but if you want to keep the OEM bumper and want to put on a winch pick up a winch mounting kit..... just do a google search jeep TJ winch mount, a lot of them are universal and you can get them for under 150 or if you are good with a welder you could build one

X2 The ARB's are pricey but worth it.
