    Default Squall Line's Frontier build

    This is partially a copy and paste from club frontier, but I have added the fridge and winch line install. These were completed two weeks back.

    Total Chaos upper control arms
    Radflo front coilovers; 3"lift and the heavier springs
    Sway a way rear resi struts
    PRG adjustable shackles
    Deaver add a leaf
    DIY 2" Body Lift
    Procomp MT 285/75/16 / Procomp 7089 in 16x8
    Shrock front bumper
    Superwinch EP9 winch
    Viking delrin rollers and 3/8" winch line
    In-cab winch wiring with arming switch for both inside/ outside
    Cobra cb with radio shack whip antenna
    Notched fenders
    Relocated body wiring harness
    Engel MR040 fridge

    In a few of the pictures, I had the Maxxis Bighorns in 255/85/16 prior to the body lift. Future plans call for building sliders and a rear bumper. A rtt is in the future plan, but the rig dose just fine with ground camping for now.I am considering dropping the body lift, and getting a full replacement leaf pack. I am still undecided on which set of tires I would like to run long term. Aesthetically, I like the procomps, and I have a full set with a spare. The 255s are possibly more economical, but only a marginal difference. I do think they are more in line with overlanding, however (less noise and rubbing in extreme flex). I need to do some back to back tests on fuel economy...



    the solenoid wiring had to be extended for the winch plug/ in-cab wiring





    255/85 Bighorns on the left, 285/75 Procomps on right

    prior to body lift and notching, rubbing was extreme.
