Thanks TSTango...

Workes like a charm. I like the way the bumper looks lower a lot better. The "hoops" look like eyelids almost, and my bug deflector actually does something now. Which in the southeast MEANS SOMETHING. I barely had any bugs last trip up from the dirty dirty. I was originally going to work on some brackets that would allow for the TJM to sit higher, but I like the way it looks better now and it will also be better for winching when I do eventually get a winch. I also posted some pics from today after a bath... anyone else freezing their fingers off keeping thier rig looking good? This is the cleanest my truck has been in months...

Right after completion:




Today's bath:

 

Is that after a 1" bodylift?

Do the hoops on the bumper interfere with the headlights at night?

 

That is after a 2" body lift but the TJM had a little to come up on its own b/c it has a little adjustment. The picture was taken at just above hoop height, I can see no loss in output. But, the hoops on the TJM are significantly thicker than the ARB so you should definately be in the clear. Your hoops also seem a little higher also.

 

Evidently there was another thread that I missed.
What is the material you used to fill the gap for the lift?

 

Hey Austin,
Looks great! I'm glad it worked out for you. The white works well.

Thanks T,
Yeah, I had the spraypaint ready but I'm glad the white works because I think it would look odd black. I'll just have to see how it looks over time but I think it will just look better as it ages. I need to wax the thing and maybe the truck will actually look white

Rat,
Yup, its just lattice from home depot! $5 or plus some cut off wheels for the dremmel and your set. One thing I noticed when doing it is when your cutting the places to help it bend, its better to not cut all the way to the front, but to keep a little there other wise it wants to bend too much. You should understand what I'm talking about when you get there, if not pm me or I can draw a diagram or something...
