Clean and simple just like the old days. I see you also have a QC inspector. :) Did you install a skid plate yet? Put some 235 70 15s or 7.00 15s on the front and you will think you just bought a Cadillac. The front will roll over rather than fall in most ruts.

since i posted the last pics , i have added a spare tire rack and change the tire size to more of a street performance type of thing. i'm having a hard time finding places around here to go off-road, so i figured i would go the next route , and get my rail street legal and have fun messing the kids around here that drive honda's and think there sh$$ don't stink. don't get me wrong i used to drive a honda , but it is just the kids that drive them.

spare tire holder ,don't pay attention to the hose clamps holding it down, wanted to make sure it would work and look good before i perm mount it

Do not forget a large tie down to keep the tire in place. I use a 2" wide tire strap. Theres always urban offroading alleys, picnics in the park.
