Taubenreuther Install Marathon
 
With the sponsorship of ARB, Taubenreuther also came on board the XXXpedition supporters. As a general importer and distributors for ARB and Warn, they also sell and install all kinds of quality 4x4 equipment. For the install marathon I drove up to the Taubenreuther headquarters in Kulmbach, Germany and they instantly went at it...
Two technicians worked two full days non-stop with a third helping every once in a while. An ARB front bumper was mounted and a Warn winch added. The hoop that sits on top of the bumper had to be cut off due to German road regulations.
Taubenreuther is an expert in 4x4 equipment and their employees really know how to install the parts. The front and rear differential were stuffed with ARB Air Lockers and closed with heavy duty ARB diff covers. The later feature a drain plug and a dip stick.
ARB also supplied us with their new side rails. Those are available for 2-door and 4-door Wrangler JKs.
Asfir 4x4 produces various products for the off-road community. So far they only have skidplates for V6-engine JKs with auto transmission. Taubenreuther wanted to test if they would also fit on a Diesel vehicle with a 5-speed. The T-case/transmission plate fits nicely but requires minor adjustments.

The muffler sits way out back on a JK and is huge. Asfir 4x4 offers an exhaust skidplate which fits without modification under the Diesel.
