It's been a while since I've updated, here's what I've done since the last post:
I added a winch and lights to the front bumper:

Wired the lights into an OEM looking toggle switch:

And added a hitch to the rear:

Took it out for the monthly wheeling trip to Johnstown/Seward and found out the body/suspension lift is causing my transfer case linkage to be a pain in the butt. I'm going to order a new shifter cable from Novak to replace all the linkage and eliminate that problem. Other than occasionally popping out of 4Hi and having troubles getting and keeping it in 4Lo the Jeep ran great.

All that's left for me to do (until fall or so) is replace the transfer case linkage, exhaust, and Oil Pan. After that, I'll be getting into the tummy tuck/SYE/underbody skidplate phase of my build. But that'll have to wait until I can save up some money.
