What a day, skid and skunkass are great guys to go wheeling with I down anytime from this point on

 

I posted about halfway through, and never checked back. This thing is still looking great! You've done a lot of nice work. Great mods, and no trail damage (that I can see anyways). How do you like those 500's? I'm looking at getting the black magic ones at some point.

 

I really like them man,would like to get 4 more for the roof and some of my buddys have em and say the love them.Thanks

 

Gots me a garden sprayer today!Totally stole the idea from another guy that I wheeled with this weekend who had one strapped in the back of his ZJ,2 gallons of pressurized water that you can use to spray off heavy mud on the wind shield or wash parts,hands, etc or use the water(that you should be carrying anyway)for your radiator if you need it.I thought it was genius so I got one at Wally World,cost me 15 monies...

 

i think i gonna grab one

 

Also fun to spray cats or your girlfriend with,even though they do not agree......

 

thats funhny

 

That’s a killer idea! I’ll have to steal that one. Thanks for sharing it!

 

Got me some fixed LCAs today,just needed something better than the wimpy stock ones that I had.These should take a little more abuse.I know some people dont like ProComp due to stiffness but anything is better than the beat to hell stock ones I got!!!50 monies too...

 

Those look pretty stout! Appears as though they've seen some rockage and lived to wheel another day.

 

Yeah very solid they have seen some action on a TJ.Those shiny areas in the pic that look like metal shining are actually wet paint though,don't know why I bothered touching them up I am just gonna beat the crap out of em

 

Installed my Procomp LCAs today,started by attaching some ratchet straps to from the bumper down and around the axle and cranking them tight so the axle wouldnt shift downwards as much when I loosened the bolts. Then bolted the new ones in.They went in pretty easy took maybe an hour with clean up and all.You can really see the difference in the stock ones compared to the new ones,Seems to even ride a little better.Next I have to get my JKS mini skids welded on...

 

Looks good!

 

I didnt get to wheel today so i figured it would be a good time to build some rear storage and get organized,I used some 1x1 for the side supports and the used 3/4 for the main deck.I added a center piece underneath and used angle brackets to beef it up.I cut some speaker holes up near the back of the seat on either side of the spare and mounted the speakers under the deck,I will cover the whole thing with carpet tomorrow.Not gonna use grill covers because they would just get broke,just going to put the carpet over the holes.I used a longer bolt and that weird little half ball thing that the factory spare used to mount up with and ran the bolt through the center of the deck to secure the spare.Mounted the fire extinguisher on the deck,and got a couple of storage containers and crates.I have all the crap I all ways had in the back but well organized and with more room for even more stuff if I need it.

 

Installed the carpet today,I used some spray adhesive and my air crown stapler.Cost me about 40.00 in material to do the whole thing including some containers I bought
