Sorry for not keeping my build thread up to date. Lots of changes to my rig since my original post so I'll try to bring you current with the build.
6/1/2012 - Had Rebel Offroad install a 3" Teraflex 8-arm lift, JE Reel 1310 drive shafts front & rear, along with a set of 35" BFG KM2's on black Method Race Wheels "Double Standard" wheels:
6/9/2012 - Installed Ace sliders
6/12/2012 - Installed EVO Protec skid plate system
6/14/2012 - Installed VIAIR onboard compressor
7/13/2012 - Installed AIRAID CAI system
7/25/2012 - Installed Smart Doors
7/28/2012 - Installed VDP shorty endcaps
9/1/2012 - Installed Hothead headliners
I'll update the above items with individual pics tonight. Next up on the build list are Poison Spyder front and rear bumpers, Teraflex rear tire carrier, King shocks, and re-gearing from the stock 4.10's to 4.88's. This should be going on late next week and we're doing something quite different with the bumpers that should look very, very cool. Stay tuned.

funny how the little things (like going from steel line/fairlead to syn rope/hawse setup) really cleans up the rig. Personally, i would do away with the Jeep logo on the grill all together but its your rig and it looks awesome.

12/12/12 – Been busy over the past month or so and made a few more mods. I installed a PCI race radio (custom programmed by the Rebel crew) and a Cooltec VersaMount 2 for the mic. The VersaMount2 also gave me room to hang my Midland CB, which was an unexpected bonus. I mounted both antennas on a Teraflex antenna mount. This is a fantastic communication setup!
I also added a set of Dually D2’s into the OE locations, a 10” Rigid SR on top of the winch fairlead, and changed out the chrome Jeep logo to a black version. Also, although not easily visible, I swapped out the wire winch rope in favor of a synthetic line from Jeepswag.com:
