Nice build! Have a SCAB as well and will likely go to that RPG rear bumper w/winch mount due to front bumper choice.

Have any pics showing how/where the winch is mounted behind the bumper?

Sorry, will look to update with clean pics next month when we finalize the shroud for it

How did this bitch perform on the Snoball run?

I've gotten borderline annoying talking up how awesome the Jenny dominated in the deep snow, and pretty much everywhere else... atleast compared to my '12. Completed the majority of Peshekee grade pulling a 2wd Screwship :biggrin: The added height up front and out back really helped

It sure did a good job of towing on Peshekee, Some of that is the truck but most of that was the Driver!!

Deavers are awesome, did you think at all about going with the spring under?

Agreed on Deavers

If I went the RST16/18 route out back, it might get considered... I'm quite pleased with how well the stock 3.0s and current deaver/bump setup has performed in a variety of conditions. So, don't really see myself going that route

How are the mastercraft tires holding up. looking at replacing my toyo MTs soon and these look almost identical with a better price point.

Mastercrafts perform well for the money and weight, tougher than most others offerings out there. The Toyo MT though is an even more durable, better wearing, and longer lasting tire. I did almost go back to the Toyo more recently, but decided to just run these tires for 1-2yrs and buy new ones, vs run the same Toyos 2-3+yrs. If you hunt you can get older build Mastercrafts for ~$200, or newer build ones for ~$250. Toyos will run you ~$350ea.

2 sets of MC's runs ~$1600 or 1 set of Toyos for $1400... Id rather have fresh rubber each winter, and cut the 12+lbs of added rotating mass. Given the quicker turnaround, can pick and choose best ones to keep as spares or sell off others for $50ea locally... which nets MC costs to toyos cost, but 2 sets.

Awesome! That’s good info. Much appreciated.
