I like the aero-dynamic holes they put in there. Makes it look less like an ARB. Nice choice.

Wait, are you saying you wish you had a TJM

I see you custom fabbed some of your own aero-dynamic holes via a skid plate under the ARB on your truck. BTW, your truck has some awesome flex.

Thread hijack: Did the manual trans bolt right up to the V8 or did you have to change bellhousings, output shafts ,etc, etc,. Do you have any type of a writeup on your swap?

Thanks for the compliments guys. I like the look of the clears, but I think I will save my money, next up is sliders and they arn't cheap.

I just got a new bellhousing from Dellow Automotive...then it all bolts straight up, no shaft swaps or anything.

There is a write up on these two forums...

Hehe, It's a not too common look.

I've never used a TJM product so I wouldn't know how to rate it. I mean ARB kinda got to the hoss steel bumper look before many TJM products were around. I like they went away from the design with the circles. I hear they make good products.
ARB's are hoss though. Been through a couple trees.
