Nice! Rear XRC with Tire Carrier. What is the third box?

RC
Correct, im hoping i dont have any issues with the carrier latch like some others have. I found the thread the other day talking about it and also saying smittybilt had a fix for it. The box in the back in a smittybilt xrc-10 come series winch and the other big box is a Or-Fab stubby front bumper with hoop (not stinger). I have a pair of the Or-Fab rocker guards on the way too.

Maybe your xrc rear came with that bracket that we needed. Mine is working great now!

Brand new transmission! No more grinding and kicking out of gear. Works great.

Now, get rid of that dw this weekend. Have over an inch of play in the steering, gonna pull the track bar, and reset, plus tighten the sector shaft. Anyone around to help near Los Gatos?

Ill have to go back and check out that thread and see what the bracket looks like. I had a few left over brackets because i didnt use the 3rd brake like bracket but there is also a small one left over i dont remember seeing mentioned in the instructions anywhere. Got everything installed yesterday. Im waiting on the Or-Fab rocker guards still.

Edit: After looking at your pictures in the tire carrier thread mine did come with that bracket included with the hardware. Ill be installing it later today.

Note to self...dont get stuck behind Jim while nite wheeling. That being said second note to self no more nite wheeling...yea right like thats going to happen!!!
:laughing2: I think these lights are damn near brighter than my 170 Lightforce. I was shocked. Can't wait until someone on the freeway pissing me off. :)

On a serious note: Getting tired of not being able to see shit when trying to back up in the mountains. Not an issue anymore, but yes might not be a good idea to be in the back of me. :)

Yes night wheeling but just no more one day trips through the Rubicon. :frown:

Its not the day trips on the Rubicon. Just seems like everytime Im out wheeling with Jeff its in the dark!!!
 
As big as that looks it is probably the easiest way to deal with a 37"+ tire by yourself.

I can't imagine trying to lift one up onto some of the tire carriers I've seen.
Honestly it's great. I thought it would be a pain to lift up to latch but it's not bad at all. The only problem is now I wand a fold down tail gate.
