Before and After - LoD TF 2.5 Coil
Ok, I can finally post the before and after pics. This is going from pure stock to full LoD bumpers and rock sliders. The lift is TF 2.5 coil with shock adapters.
The jeep has been "stuck" in the garage behind my camper for over a month now. The snow we had here made it impossible for me to move the camper enough to get the jeep out. Took it out today and honestly I'm starting to agree with the people who say the TF coil lift rides better than stock. I was even looking for pot holes or bumps to hit just to see if I could feel them. Nothing!

It's been a while, but I'm no stranger to the underside of a jeep. The front bumper and winch was a single evening. That was almost too easy. Each of the rock sliders was a short evening. Lots of drilling, tapping and cussing. The rear bumper I'm not really sure how long it took. Probably a total of two evenings at 3-4 hours each. All of the above work was by myself or with my 10 yr old who didn't do much more than hand me wrenches.
This isn't my daily driver so I was in no hurry. Honestly a couple of guys could do both bumpers on a saturday no problem.

LOL how long did it take to do the work? Or how long has it taken ME to get it all done?

I am eagerly awaiting the deliver of my rear LoD, I think I have 3-4 more weeks of waiting. I need to tool around on the Jeep so will have to focus on smaller mods, wiring mostly.

Yes, those are the stock rubi tires and wheels. The jeep would look a lot more beefy with more rubber, but honestly looks fine with the stockers.
