Supersize, slap yourself. They are not RC lights, they are KC.
Are you wanting the truck for off-road purpose, or more for on road that can go off?
If you want more of an off-road truck, don't put the door bars on it. Will get you stuck and snag on branches/brush. Pain in the butt. The front bumper your looking at is near what I would recommend. Tear that weak *** plastic off your doors, and have rhino bedding sprayed on instead. This will look better, and re-enforce your doors in case you bump a tree or rock. The plastics do nothing for protection.
I'm trying to find this bumper that would be perfect for you. Its similar to the one your looking at, but looks much better, has built in holes for some KC's, and can mount a snow plow. Snow plows are awesome. =)
Check on some Dana 30 lockers. Awesome stuff man.
And lifted jeeps have this issue with the ' death wobble '. Some guys throw a lift kit on and dont get all the proper parts. When at speed, a random bump can make the wheel shake left and right uncontrollably. Do you have a good off-road shop in town that can take a look at the work done to the lift kit?
