This is a mod I did on a 5 dollar budget cause I needed a place to mount my shovel, and it works great. As requested by Geeky I will share with everyone:D
To start I did by the mounts at Walmart. Not my favorite store in the world, but I live in a small town and they were the only place...

The pics dont do you justice. You had the balls to take a different line that would have put streaks in anyones pants!

And you prob. could have made it on that line but the rear bumper may have not come with you.
Its the infamous TJ rear bumper make it a front bumper mod. I also used a TJ bumper for the rear. It works for me and it only cost me front and rear about $50 -60 to make it happen.
you can get a mount that attaches to the front recovory hook. Saw them on the wall where we paid.
I believe all they are is a piece of flat steel and a U-bolt through one end. Its the same thing I have seen used on stockers at Silver Lake.
I can't its a 6 hour drive for me from Vincennes to the park. Just a smidge out of the way. Maybe Labor Day weekend, I will be back up in the Fort then but Geeky needs to fix his jeep first!!
My jeep looks speckled because of the little rain we had and all the dust that was covering it. Neat place would have liked to explore some more trails, but there will always be next time.
I guess I must be in the minority, cause I have not had a problem yet with my power trax. I have not heard any thing abnormal sounding coming from the rear diff.:-k
The only difference is that when turning on loose gravel I will hear the tire grab, and when not properly aired down and in...
Alright last time checking the forum before I leave for home. I guess Saturday night is a bust. If plans change and I am in town I will give Jamie a call. Most likely will be at B-dubs on dupont and lima round 9ish
See you Sunday!!!
well I was thinking later like 9 or 10
Just throwing the idea out there....
oh, and by the way, I can't believe you get to see Red Green!!!! SO jealous.
Does anyone want to meet up Saturday night grab some beers somewhere? I will be in town Friday night through Sunday, thought it would be nice to see everyone and get to hang out some before we hit the trails.
where are you guys meeting and at what time? I might be able to make this one. I will be home that weekend, but since its on a Sunday I dont know if I can squeeze it in before I have to drive home to Vincennes.
Front engine skid for an 05 and up will fit older KJs, BUT 05's and up have a different mounting point on the engine skid in the rear so a hole will need to be drilled in the skid. (I am using an 03 skid on my 06)
Transmission skid should fit with no modifications.
Transfer case skid from...
I have the Guard dogs on my ride and love them. I did see a slight increase in mileage, but I thought that was due to me going from mudrovers to a more closed tread tire. I am going to try them out on the dunes in the next few weeks and see how they do. I am worried about airing them down...
Going there the second week of July. This will be 2nd time for the KJ and 7th time for me. Love every minute of it and the KJ was a champ on the dunes. I ran open last year in 4 low and it worked great. AIR DOWN. Although a buddy of mine forgot to put his XJ into 4 wheel and made it around...
