I finally pulled the bumper to remove the winch.. gears were seized up, so I lubed everything up and tried again, still nothing more electric diag and turns out the motor is toast, so no winch for me.
While the bumper was off I painted it, along with my hood louvers, and hopefully in the next day or two the fender flairs, rock rails, and rear bumper. I'm also working on a better way to mount the license plate since it currently resides in the hitch which is a pain and probably illegal when I tow since I have to remove my plate to do so..
I did finally get a new radiator and corrected the electrical nightmare that was the issue with the e-fan not working.. so I'm back to full cooling system operation with no more overheating.
Sounds like some good progress man. Going to get a new winch??
I doubt I'll get a winch anytime soon, I don't wheel alone so it really isn't a huge priority.
Have you gotten or made unibody stiffeners for this?
You should see the setup the previous owner made for this thing it's ridiculous. 2x6 tube sliders, with 2" angle running the full length of the frame tied to the sliders with more 2x6 tubing.
Todays projects finished up, just need to mount the front bumper back on.. bedlined everything that was siliver and touched up a few other odds and ends that were showing some rust.. and built a spare tire license plate mount so I can use my hitch again.

Parts ordered/in hand for..
front/rear diff fluid change - just finished the rear
front axle u-joints - waiting for another set to show up since I'm not totally sure which axle I have so I'll return the ones that aren't right. Hopefully this will quiet down my sharp turns other than my locker still clicking..
rear output transfer case seal - I think thats where its leaking from at least.
I still need to figure out which ball joint I need for the trackbar, the part number I found wasn't right. I'm hoping that is where my popping that occurs occasionally is coming from.
I should have most of it done before the Sept 7th RC trip.
Oh yea I still have an AC condenser to install, and a "repaired" exhaust manifold.
