Today i ordered:
Rugged Ridge XHD Front Bumper (Stubby)
WARN M8000 Self-Recovery Winch
Rugged Ridge Xtreme Heavy Duty Rear Bumper
KC HiLiTES 6" Round SlimLite Series Long Range 130W (w/ window mounts)
Plus i'm thinking about rock rails ... Right now i'm up in the air. I can't find the one i really want which are these by MOPAR:
I've looked almost everywhere with no luck. If i can't find them or something very similar very soon i'm going to go with the regular MOPAR Enhanced Rock Rails. All i really need is something my son can climb up on (7yr old), functional and covers up that ugly seam.

I have had them on for a few weeks now; and they are plenty bright. 9" H.I.D. from harbor freight and they seem to be holding up fine. I did have to do a couple of modifications to make everything right. The lights are too deep for the Mopar brackets, so I had to make some additional brackets to move them out slightly; I also painted the grilles with flat black bumper paint because the chrome grilles looked ridiculous. I also found the adjustments for the lights to be less than acceptable; this was cured by cutting some heater hose in half and placing the halves in the swivel mount’s, this cured the problem and made them very adjustable.
I am very pleased with the results; considering I only paid $70 a piece for the lights, and they appear to be knock off’s of the Delta Tech lights costing $600+ for a pair. Time will tell how well they hold up; but so far, so good…
This is a link to the Delta Tech; they sure look the same…
