For all those who have been asking.... The Painting Materials List......
Paint : different for everyone but what I will prolly end up doing is having you paypal me the money and Ill order it
Masking material : Newspaper or brown paper is fine you don't necessarily need the "masking paper"
Tape: blue painters tape or green paper tape is fine. The better the tape the cleaner the line and the easier it is to de-mask.
Sand paper: This is another item that varies with application.
Solvent: I am running low, if someone is feeling generous atleast a gallon but a five of Methyl Ethyl Ketone *MEK* would be greatly appreciated. It can be had at the Home Depot
Will take a weekend to prep and shoot and cure enough before you can drive it home.
Also my air compressor runs on Yuengling, a sixer should be plenty per jeep... just saying.
Any questions just ask...

Sand paper: This is another item that varies with application. Possibly end up just like the paint.

If you help/do the prep work I would entertain shooting it for free when I can get your jeep in. Will take a weekend to prep and shoot and cure enough before you can drive it home.

It is a steal I am screwing myself pretty good with that arrangement. I got 700-1000 bucks worth of labor on all my overall paint jobs, and that is not including any dent repair... but what can I say, I have only been here for alittle over 2 months and have been helped considerably, so this is my Karma donation, and it helps build my portfolio

going to go to 33's with the new lift though. I guess I'll just get spacers...which are best?? I heard some brands are prone to breaking bolts, cracking or just falling off?? Just what I heard.
Uhh i believe only like 40K miles... Still works just want to go higher and I guess could use some bushings. If I get this IRO one...you'll be the first person I call. That is, If you build me a harness and install it
Alex, awesome deal man...will probably do it late august if that works?? gotta finance my money..
Guess a build thread will be in the making shortly.

See what you guys think...
Gotta fab up a new front axle track bar mount. Pics are of what I have now.
What I want to do is replace with 3/16th. Due to spring pad, shock mount and swaybar being tied into bracket I need to move it in towards the axle 1/8". Instead of 2 tabs welded to axle, was thinking about fabbing an ear and welding to axle. White area is metal removed, black is metal added.
Thoughts???
