That's a Smittybuilt bumper/carrier. If I could weld, I would do that mod to mine. Nice work!
What did you do to your TJ today?

Thanks, old Mickey Thompson Challengers.
Oh. I thought that was your time on the quarter mile
The TJ and I watched this BleepinJeep video on Bronco vs Jeeps (Pritchett Canyon). So funny watching an XJ with a Dana 35 and stock shafts on 33s, outperform a JK, WJ and Bronco on 40s. Maybe it's the Patagonia tires that screwed up the other vehicles.
I watched that video a month or so ago. That little xj was a damn Billy goat! It showed up everything else on the trail that day. Kinda makes me want to get my kid an Accord and build his XJ up.
I don't know what year your TJ is or if it you got it with a transmission skid plate or not but you may want to make sure that oil pan isn't so deep it will be in the way of reinstalling (or adding) the transmission skid plate (in the future).
I'm also not sure if you're planning on off roading or not so maybe that depth doesn't matter.
Anyway, you're doing quite a bit of stuff and I think we all like to see other Jeepers doing that.

Their recent video on the recap of their OnX competition was pretty interesting to see how the rigs worked with Pats in both Moab and Colorado.

This is the one that I got:

I got it based off of several recommendations here and many others have said that it fits with a stock skid plate. It might be tight, but I heard that it fits.

Come awn. 41 flat
?These things are turds, but I bet I could squeak out a sub 20 sec. pass.

I finally finished my front end refresh.
I did all new control arms, axle seals, axle ujoints, ball joints, unit bearings, ZJ steering upgrade with a new damper, I had the steering knuckle divots welded, new rotors, calipers and pads.
Now me and my wallet need a short break.

It really is. His is basically stock, with a very small lift (HD springs in the rear and spacers in the front that gave it about an inch of clearance) and 31" tires. Added a stereo and good speakers, and a backup camera. I've been using it as a run-around-town vehicle for the past 3 years as we have worked on it and fixed all its little problems and neglect.
The cabin is very similar to my TJ, but has AC. So similar, in fact, that I occasionally find myself trying to press in the clutch that ain't there!
Someone said this was the best $20 spent in awhile so I had to see what all the buzz was about. Actually $16. Retiring the old worn “Jeep” steering wheel cover
