I disagree. I believe this is a 60" jack so I'm not too sure you could put it horizontally on the LoD without it sticking out on either side of the Jeep. Maybe it's not ideal for mudrunners or winter driving, but I think it's a pretty cool idea. More importantly, it shows thinking outside of the box to come up with new ideas which is what is so cool about SEMA generally and some of Camp's builds in particular.
I think that's a better location for sliders than for recovery gear.

I'm surprised to like anything from Smitty, but that body armor is neat. My favorite by far and away, however, was the EVO entry. That JK is flat sinister AND, best of all, it actually gets used. Check out the undercarriage - scars and rash from the trail everywhere. Trailer queens the rest IMO.

The Smittybilt fenders are growing on me....
But, for them to have a shot, I would want to see the very front of the front fenders have a more smooth transition into the lines of the grill, so they don't look just like blocks on the side of the jeep, and I really think that even like a traditional fender that sticks out about 2 inches or so would tie the whole thing together. I'm just trying to make sense of them...
IMO, they need some more work, and the rear needs to fir better around the tail light. At least it is interesting to see some new ideas coming out
