04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

After that, I got me a set of Super Swamper Bogger tires 15 38.5 16LT. For which I had to move up to a 6" lift.
For these I went ahead and inverted the rear main shaft and cut the chasi to avoid rubbing
And cut a little out of the trani support

Also went for Superior Engineering's drag ling and extended panhards
and swaped the rear dif for one with disc breaks
For the suspenssion I used some Pro Comp shocks(29" frnt, 34" rear) and Iron Man coils (6"), some 5.5| caster plates, and threw out the sway bars. Also swaped lower control arms for Superior engineering 10mm longer arms and a set of Pro Comp 10" steel rims. And of course, some fender trimming, actually I ended up doing away with the rear fender flares -- got tired of riping them off on the trails

And then the problems started. So, I swapped the Nissan manual hubs for a set of Superior Engineering chromoly ones (after I broke them both)
Double rancho steering dampers:
A pwr steering oil cooler
And for some peace of mind, I swapped the CV's & axles for a set of Cal's chromoly ones.

Also went for transffer reduct to 2.484
And an extra battery for the winch

Well, after one of our trails, and a whinning co-pilot, I decided to go ahead and make some changes to that unpractical but ultra reliable bull bar
Here's for a better winch access
And some D-rings for recovery. Only used them for winching, dont know if they'd take a good yanking, but dont recommend trying
Nice rig mate looks the goods
