I need an arrow pointing from the rugged rocks sticker to Kane creek canyon, since that's where I broke my motor mount...

Final carnage tally:
Driver's side motor mount
Driver's side half-shaft torn engine-side boot (replace half-shaft since I drove all the way home with it torn)
Passenger side lower ball joint
Passenger side front sway bar connector

Totally worth it!

Shopping list:
Half shafts
Ball joint
Steering components (total chaos or SLR)
Powertank

How did you support the engine when you replaced the motor mount? I didn't notice the RR mounts could be put on backwards, does the angled base lean toward the engine or the wheel well?

Carefully and nervously supported the engine under the oil pan, as well as wratchet strapping it from the passenger side. Here's the install:

Short side toward the engine so it's essentially parallel to the ground

want to make me a rear tube bumper to match my front end too? :D also you think the holes you cut in your skid are enough for air circulation? heard a couple buddies not making them big enough or enough in general having a heating issue.

I may at some point cut into the aluminum skid below the bend, but it would be for making it look more awesome...at this point, my temp stays the same, all the time, same as before I put on that bumper. But, I also swapped out my radiator with a much bigger SC version, which cures a lot of ills.

Bright as sh#t in a good way. Not much glare at all. The basket is designed so the lights are set back enough there is no shine on the hood. I get very little glare, and it's all at the top of the windshield
