History
3rd owner as far as I can tell. Got it stock. Came with rear ARB locker to me. 2nd owner did not take it offroad.
I got rear ended. Was a small one, but the tub, door, bumper, tire carrier got replaced in the ordeal.
Side steps were rusted and got removed quickly after I got the truck.
Brush bar was rusted from the inside out, was removed until I get to build something similar (sturdier).

Wheel and Tire
Most of the "enhancements" were ghetto fab (i.e. don't blame any of the vendors for those! ;)) :
- rear quarter panels
- nerf bars (aka rock sliders)
- front bumper with 2" receiver and winch 2" tube mount (just the 2" receiver made the winch sit too low and too far up-front)

Winch sits on a 2" receiver tub and can move from the top of the front bumper to the rear 2" receiver.

Alloy gas tank skid plate came from SafariHP.

I had to fix a few rusting points in the rear cross member, I think it'll last another 5 years with those fixes. Likely need to replace it in the next 10 years like all other Defenders.

Running KM2 285/75 tires. Off road, they seem happy ~14PSI. Higher than 16 they don't flex much.
