Too short. Heck maybe if they just moved the wheel wells back a few inches it would look right?

That's what she said! HA!! Sorry, couldn't resist. I agree that it looks pretty bad. A couple feet longer would probably look better.

Funny thing is them traction bars most likely do nothing. The look to be mounded on the axle end with a single mounting point, and are mounted to the frame with a shackle......

1) Looky there! Iron Cross steps! Lol. See Apoc, you got us a group buy on SEMA parts without even knowing it.

2) The cage is over the top and flat black is completely played out.

3) WHY would the ladder be right there lol. All you need is one night of drinks around the camp fire, and your mischievous somewhat intoxicated buddies can make you poop your pants when you wake up the next day.

4) Twelve light bars?! Some of them are just ridiculously located.

What is in that diaper behind the rear bumper - a wench? Spare tires block the tail lights. Nice oil leak to boot...

I noticed that, it completely defeats the entire purpose of lifting for ground clearance. These things have a dismal departure angle as it is, and that thing just killed it entirely.

I just can't get over how forced the whole thing looks. Nothing looks natural or like it should be there. It is like some 8-year-old sat there with a catalog and just decided to throw everything at it with a case of flat black rattle cans thrown in as a bonus. Honestly the whole thing is a monstrosity, I mean, just how many light bars and other auxiliary lights do you need?

I've read they prefer the term, Lady of the Night.

Besides, if you could fit a wench inside of that small space, she must be legless, and we can't talk about that because this is a family site.
