no lights. im keeping them for my jeep. i used the $10 walmart LED lights.

all cherokees look the same and i want a unique jeep not the same old xj. im not sure about the coilover locations just yet. the linked suspension is the last thing on my list to complete. gotta get cage done, unibody rails reinforced then start the rear end. the solution to a cheap front 44 swap is leaf springs thats where you save the money by not having to buy a whole truss or new mounts for everything

 

today i picked up some steel for my quarter panels and rear bumper. i got he bumper cut the way i want it just need to weld the mounts together



started the quarter panels




and them mounted. just need to put a couple more bolts in



tomorow i will hopefully get the bumper finished and mounted. i cant do much sheet metal work in the back until i get the coilovers mounted

 

^ Are those just carriage bolts bolted to the sheetmetal holding that plate on?

 

Yes that is correct. I love the look of the carriage bolts

I got some more done tonight. I will post up pics later

 

waiting to see more... lol
lookin good ive been away for awhile and missed the new project..

 

heres my update from tonight

a new item was added to the shop collection...


i got the rear bumper welded up with the new welder (welds like a dream. way better than the old 130) and painted and mounted




then i got bored so me and my buddies decided to tear the front end apart


i created a template and design for the rear tail light housings. they will be welded to the quarter panel guards and maybe the pinch seam. let me know what you think of the design.




so tomorow i am buying 4 currie johnny joints for the 3 link build. getting them for a good deal. i am also getting a sheet of 3/16ths steel to fab up my tail light housings. hopefully will have atleast one done tomorow

 

Hey is there any chance that you are selling your rear leaf springs? If so how much lift are they, also I am interested in buying them.

 

yes i will be selling the rear leafs and shackles. im not sure for how much but a buddy wants the leafs. if he doesnt buy them i will let ya know. wont be pulling them for a while though
