Arb

[2006 KJ]

finally got my ARB painted and on... the winch is a smitty bilt XRC 10 (10,000lb) Together they sure are heavy... i used an engine hoist to hold it when wiring the winch and lights... test fitting and installing. i'm just waiting for the fog light plugs (on back order from ARB) then it will finally be complete! i'm also going to add 3 conduit nuts per side for a clevis lift... bring it up a lil higher in the front again.

How do you operate the winch with the cover on? I like to see the drum so I can make sure the cable winds up evenly so I didn't put it on.

 

[2006 KJ]

you can see the drum if you look in though the hole at an angle.. i might still cut the plate off on the passanger side to match the hole i reach in to engage the winch on the drivers side. then it would be real visable. but this works great for now.

Thats one sweet looking Jeep!

Cant believe you got that bumper to match the paint so well.

Looking good! When i ordered my ARB i was thinking about painting it but the way it came matched the Columbia Edition trim so i left it and the warn M8000 fight nicely i did pick up a license plate thing that clips onto the fairlead. Now you just need to fill those fog light holes. . .

looks great, one of my favorite KJs for sure. It doesn't looke like you lost much height at all.

 

[M&P40]

that looks awsome congrats i love that color red and having the bumper painted to match is a very nice touch

Nice. You seem to have a healthy amount of lift over those 265/75 tires. What lift are you running? Frankenlift?

 

[riptricket]

yes, he is running the franky!

and man i want your jeep!!!

thanks for the compliments everyone!! i've waited a loooong time for a used ARB to come up since a new one was out of my budget and it finally happened so i'm glad the payoff was worth the wait! as far as lift goes it's just a standard frankenlift with an extra rear isolator in the rear.. and very soon to be 3 nut clevis lift in the front. then it should be about where i want it. havnt had a chance to use the winch in a real situation yet but hopefully soon.

yes, he is running the franky!

and man i want your jeep!!!

it can be yours today everything has a price

thanks a lot for the very complete package.. everything was still there and worked great.

glad i could be a service "same paint as ours" is a loaded statement.. we use a PPG mixing system and there's 6 variance shades of that color red hahaha.. all very very very slightly different.

you should def. join the club! dont know what your missing
