Love the look of the tire/wheel combo- I was going to go with that exact set-up (33's instead of 35's) but decided upon the Goodyear Silent Armors. How have the DC's performed in the snow so far? And, how much has the added weight effected driving ability, acceleration, etc...?

So far, I think the DC's did well in the snow. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> I really liked the hybrid of a mud and all terrain design. As far as the driving performance...there is a noticeable difference going uphills. That is only because of the larger diameter from stock...but after I regear it, it shouldn't be a problem.

Yeah, the brush guard is staying...I like it and its rare....but then again thats why I had the front and rear receivers made...for my future portable winch set up. That way I only have my winch on when I am going wheeling. Nice to see the 35's. Sure keep the brush guard. Weld it to an aftermarket bumper when you upgrade to one and you won't ever have issues with it off road. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Who did you have make the receiver setup? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" /> Samson Welding in Honesdale, PA...let me know if you are interested, i will get you in contact with him. You have to remember that i did the body lift so it fits in there the way i did it. Ahh good 'ol Honesdale. Looks good Mark!! Get that thing on any trips lately? I'm leaning toward a Gen 2.5 right now..
