Its looking good branden. I bet those cage bars that run next to the front seats are going to bug the **** out of you though. You could run them with a little curve similar to a cj5 door frame shape.

doug, i will be tieing it into the diff cover. i have one on its way here. will also add some more little support parts. im just getting it all together to make sure it fits right then i will add more

bernie, i put the bars like that so i can run no doors and feel safe. it will also help with a side impact.

got more done today. wont be able to do much more on the jeep for another week or so until my other joint comes

lowers hung


lowers attached to axle



the drivers side upper with mounts welded to frame and axle end





made some bump stops off the frame for the coils to sit around and through the tj coils in and put the tire on.


sitting on its own at ride height. definitely needs 38s

Thanks guys! The *** end looks a little high but the gas tank is empty and I have no tools loaded in the back so it should settle down a bit

It's always nice to add some bigger tires. You are probably gonna run out of people to wheel with, at the rate you are going.
