Looks good! Did you just cut the rear supports?

CW Motorsports. It's the back half, the reason I went for this was stereo and light bar wouldn't work with any other aftermarket cage. Also if you have a highlifter this may not work with factory snorkel kit, but I lucked out because I've already modded my snorkel kit to accommodate the Howe Racing rad.

I was actually looking at that kit before. How was the fit on it all? Did you get it right from CW? They have a highlifter option on their site now. I want to go bigger but I'm almost scraping the top of the garage door now so I need to do something

Got er direct from CW, it bolted right on without a problem and the bonus they'll powder coat it for you as well. If your going taller/lift do it right, new clutches (not a "kit") take a look at the new Highlighter transmission its geared even lower than the first gen (2015-16) Highlifter Transmission. The bigger tires provided you keep reasonable off set 0deg or 6-1 won't cause too much grief.

Mine's an '18 so already geared super low. I think I can make the stock clutches work well enough with the bigger tires, if not then may as well do portals!! I'll be in touch with CW over the winter.
PS. It's tough to type with your avatar on the screen

Installed new grill inserts on my grizz, old ones broke out from a tree branch. Also
put a new cap on my coolant overflow bottle since I lost it somehow.

I have chased a slow leak for years. New tires this past summer and still leaking over time. Finally, a technician found out what the cause was. A hole in the rim if you can believe it! Smoothed the inside of the rim, patched it, and put in a tube. Hopefully, it will be the end of my grief. Otherwise it is a new rim.

Must have been those mountain rocks.

If you were closer I would weld it for you! Welded lots of rims! My buddy broke 3 in one day.

My buddies had holes big enough for golf balls to fit through. He got stuck where there was an old gravel pile, filled the rims with gravel
