Yeah I do matt. That is really what I wanted to do but I couldn't get it to work out like that for whatever reason. I opted not to mount the stinger until after the 5.4. Is in that way I can tie it into the engine cage and front shock hoops.

I think it would look sweet with some tube coming out of the grill to the stinger. Your going to have a engine cage correct? Would be easy

Search youtube. There is a jeep Cherokee (i think) that is really glad he had one in the sand.

Its kind of funny because it stops on the front end and doesn't come back down.

It still works in sand, it might sink a couple of inches first but it will still do its job.
