I’m running 30’s and have plenty of room.

Picked up this rear bumper from Texas Outdoor. Great looking bumper and functional with the receiver hitch and step. Working on lights now but happy with the quality and finish of bumper.

Yes I noticed how much stronger these a arms are. We just installed a set on my buddy’s Mule pro fxt. Good looking a arms. I will definitely give them a call.

I just installed 32’s on my maverick sport but tried them on my defender first and they barely cleared while turning. Does the super atv a-arms give extra clearance on the front. I love the look of the 32’s on the defender.

Just finished these rigid backup light in the reflector position. These are 1000 lumens and are very bright for the size of the light. I wanted to go for a factory look and I’m happy with the end result. If anything that I may add is a cover plate to strengthen the mount plate. But the plastic is pretty sturdy.

I thought the same thing. I installed two screws per side on the speaker bracket hardware then I mounted the whole assembly onto the unit. I secured the 6 screws on the bracket that goes through the roof cage and that sets the spacing for the speaker for when you remove it to reinstall roof bolts. If you just install brackets without the speaker it may be to tight to get speaker in or to spaced out for screws to reach. I had no issues with clearance or fit. I taped the extra harnesses to top of speaker with tape and only ran power and ground wire bundle through my pillar for a clean look.

You don’t have to actually remove the whole roof. You just remove the 3 bolts on forward side of roof and lift it to get the bolts for speaker brackets installed. You mount the speaker then tighten all the hardware that goes through the cage. Remove the speaker and reinstall the roof bolts then reinstall speaker again.

Has good enough bass but if you’re into extreme bass would recommend a different sound system. It’s very clear and I turned the bass down for a clean sound. I have a video and it’s not turned up all the way. IMG_3285.MOV

Went with the SSV works overhead stereo on my defender. Was pretty easy to install. I ran my cable through drivers pillar for a clean look. Took me about 1 1/2 hours with the wife’s help to stab. Sounds really good. I’m not into extreme loud bass music but you can adjust as needed. Love that it’s out of drivers view and can’t really tell it’s there. Also has the dome light which puts out some good light. Only con is you lose your review mirror.

Let us know how you like the kit. I was looking at this same Super Atv kit a couple of days ago. Installation looks pretty simple. Good luck! It’s definitely going to make a difference on the stock defender! Can wait to see the after pictures!

Finally have time to get my fence done and got my gate built. Now if it would stop raining I might be able to hang it.

Toolboy, that is a nice looking rig! Those 32’s fit perfectly!

Awesome! If you decide to install I can post some more photos that may help. Glad they clarified!

Hello Andystoy19, I would recommend stopping before locking the halo locker as it is a mechanical pin lock and if the axle is spinning when the pin locker is engaged it can wear pins prematurely. I would definitely verify with Halo though. I always stop to engage them stop to disengage.

It’s the annual Texas OHV Decal. It’s required in some state recreational parks if you ride there. You can get it on the Texas Park and wildlife website.

Did you have any clearance issues with your bed and seal when dumping? I have clearance issues where the bed gap seal hits the seal on window when using the dump bed.

Teeze, have any pics! I’ve been thinking about swapping mine out. I have the front glass. Thanks!

I installed the halo locker front differential kit about a year ago and it works flawlessly. Makes a huge difference from the visco lock.

I installed the same rear poly windshield. Made the cab even quieter and keeps dust out.

Did you have any pictures with the 32’s?

Wheels look great especially with the black accents and tires are awesome when planning for mud riding which I have not been disappointed with these XMR tires. The tread bites as designed but would not use around the house or when moving equipment around. I swap wheels/tires out when I have at home to avoid tearing up ground.I’ve having best of both worlds with both sets and swap according to trail.

I purchased this car in 2002 and was my daily driver for about 5 years. I slowly started some upgrades many years ago and and some how forgot to finish what I started. Im guessing between two kids, buying a house and it being the last item on my wife’s to do list could’ve made me put this off this long! I have restarted this journey and hope to get some progress on this go around. Swapped original 350 TPI with a 400 sbc and just put on a edelbrock top end kit that should be putting out around 410 HP. Hope to get done some time next year as I’m doing lot of the work myself.

Was looking for spare mud tires for my Lonestar. Came across a really good deal on some stock XMR wheels and tires this weekend. The tires and wheels are brand new with stickers still on them. My son is starting to think it’s one of his monster trucks!

Plenty of room in bed for yeti full of fish or empty cans!:) Either way you come out winning!
