Looks awesome man. Any drive-ability issues on or off road with the wider track width?
Drive-ability is great. It needs a bit more work on getting the shock valving dialed, but it overall it handles well. That being said, navigating trails with clearance for a typical Jeep can be an issue due to the track width and the width of the extended body. I had a couple of squeeze sections on this last trip that made me pretty nervous.

Glad to hear the driveability is good. We need some more action shots!

This is awesome! when you routed the cage through the firewall did you have to lose anything? like ac or heater or reroute fuse panels and such?

I lost the vent blend motor and some vent/defrost pressure. I had to relocate the battery, the coolant reservoir, the wash fluid reservoir, the air intake box, and the fuse block. Heat and ac are still functional.
