Oh...you are a rabble-rouser, Kurt!!! Don't do that to him!! He is under alot of stress!
I am going to reinstall the side steps back over them. I know one spot needs to be screwed through or something with the steps, but yeah I need those for my kiddos.

Oh, thank you. @Aman!!Hiya, @Cat! I believe you are getting the mod bumper on your Wildtrak. If I am correct in that assertion, my first recommendation is a kinetic rope and soft shackles. I bought a set from Matt's Recovery when they had their preorder pricing last year. Matt's rope is sourced from Yankum and is a proven brand. A lot of people like metal shackles, but I think they are unnecessary, unless you want them for the bling factor on the front of your rig.
I really want a winch, but do not want to block the camera or ACC sensor, so I am looking at the stealth one from Rough Country. Unfortunately, it only works with the 2.3L unless you want to relocate the cooler, which is not difficult, but will require some fabrication. Ideally someone will produce a 2" hitch adapter for the mod bumper which lets us to use a winch on the front or rear and allows you to leave it in the garage when you're just cruising around town.
If you end up with a winch, I also suggest a tree saver strap and snatch block. I prefer a traditional snatch block as opposed to the solid aluminum versions, but many like the aluminum versions.
When it comes to lifting the vehicle, I suggest staying away from hi-lift jacks. I love the off-road floor jacks from Pro Eagle, but with the limited space in the 2-door I opted for The Sergeant from SafeJack.
Also, while this is outside your scope of recovery gear, I suggest an air compressor. I bought the KR Off-Road ARB Compressor Engine Bay Mount and twin compressor from @4x4TruckLEDs.com. This is a sexy piece of kit that will be useful even for medium trails.
Oh, don't want to forget recovery boards. If you're on your own and don't have a winch, these will get you out of a lot of difficult situations. Do not cheap out on these. There are plenty of cheaper ones available online, but they will disintegrate the first time you use them. Maxtrax are a proven product and will not let you down when you are stuck.
I have much more to add, but my boss just asked, "You're a master on forums, huh?", so I should probably pretend to work a little.
Call CS, then. Have them do a 3-way call. Don't give up.
Hellz yeah - congrats! You are going to f'in love it.Salesman just texted me! IT'S HERE!
They will lessen stress on you truck seat from sliding in and out.
Spot on advice @Aman! My only addition would be to check out a company called ASR (https://www.asroffroad.com/) for recovery ropes, shackles, etc. Great Made in America stuff at very reasonable prices.Hiya, @Cat!
