I bought the front and rear DIY, front is a winch bumper with pre runner bars and the rear just has the receiver. D link tabs front and rear. I haven't done the rear yet but the front was easy peasy. That is assuming you have a table or work bench to clamp the plate to for bending purposes, a welder and a grinder....

Forget I own a renix also
Problem #1 - Sensor for Electric fan shot
Problem #2 - Looks like he has baby **** for coolant
He pulled into my buddies driveway yesterday and she blew. Only lost 1/2 gallon of water. Im not convinced that it is the water pump or t-stat, thinking more along the lines of blockage.
Fan Clutch worked OK also....

I was on one of my 30 hour no sleep jaunts yesterday, so I was pretty disoriented when he showed up

also trying to swap in my new diff covers, any recommended gaskets? or fluid? I haven't looked to see if they offer cork or rubber or both nor have I consulted the grail of information that is my shop manual for recommended lube weight
