Stole Ebelen's Jaos bar...

Well not really...

Got it for a pretty sweet deal... I was getting tired of my Westin Safari and the Hella's being mounted too low...

Edwin listed his bar for sale and I picked it up... With a bit of trimming on the bracket and bars, I got it to fit with my 2" bl... Also the Hella 500's looked like crap so I just picked up some el cheapo KC style lights at Autozone for $30...

If I didn't like the style of the 99-02 bumpers, I would have already had an ARB on but this works great for me since I don't do any serious offroading that would require the extra protection...

That is nice. It complements well with your silver color. How much did you steal it for?

dang dude. That really compliments the overall look of you truck. really gives that that blingy off-road sorta style.

Those cheap lights do well too, but i've seen some lights that look like they are entirely chrome, the new ones w/ like halogen bulbs i think. THOSE would look saweet.

I have always liked your truck, and this makes it even better. In fact, your look is what I am kind of shooting for but without a lift for now.

Which brings me to...is your truck Desert Dune or Silver?

yeah... I agree it is a bit blinging... I considered painting it the same color as my slider but that would kill the bar...

I'm jealous LOL...

Darrin's truck is pretty tall; you really need to see it in person to appreciate. And yes, it is super clean w/ all the bells and whistles (leather, wood-grain, etc.).
