I bought this a few months ago from Wicked here on the board. I posted some pics of it in another build thread but decided it needs it's own thread.
I got already back halved with a full cage, 6.5 inch lift, old plugged and starting to rot 36-13.50-15 Iroks, 44 front and nine inch rear both locked with 5:13's.
Some pics as I got it.

Glad to see you in a rig. Maybe I will get into another one sometime myself
 
So I took it Wheeling a couple times. Found a few issues, such as the transfer case most likely needing rebuilt or at least a new chain. I went ahead and decided to get new tires and a winch. Before and after, and yes they are the exact same tires and rims. I took the best of the old ones and mounted it for a spare. If I'm on an extreme trip, I'll have several spares.

Here's the new winch in its cradle. Already tested it out at Harlan and it worked awesome recovering myself and two others.

I still have a lot I want to do to it but it's going to be a little while before I get to it, but I will update the thread as I work on it.
