Been following the blog, but not made any posts. I have a 2wd 96 Xj I'm building then will later convert. I have a few questions. 1. When you tore the carpet up, on like page 27, what did you put down in it's replacement? 2. When doing the truck bed liner inside, how long did it take to prep, paint, and dry; how many coats did you use, and what was the overall price of the project? Im looking at tearing up my carpet and putting something new in its place, just haven't decided what or how. Sweet XJ man!

I just used a rustoleum bedliner it was 43$ at Wal-Mart. It was easy. The only thing that sucks is that it smells like paint thiner in the jeep all the time and it gets a lot louder. Overall not bad of a project
