hahaha this made me laugh real hard.

Thanks for the words of encouragement! Updates are few as I am working full time and going to school right now. Just little things. The steering is done, the seat brackets are done, the dash brackets are done, I have the new door bottoms kinda done.

Some more fuel system plumbing done (vent tubes, etc), air tank mounted, comps mounted...radiator is done...just piecing it together.

Once I get my school done in April, I will be moved and making much more money...so it might get finished lol

Cheers!!

^^^ Needs to be lower!! haha

Aight heres some pics of the random-ness that is going on. I don't have time to sit in the garage and do any structured work, so I just do something small when I snap from the **** that life is full of recently!! So this is what 45 minutes here and there has got me.

I finished the underside. All sealed, wires ran, air lines ran, fuel lines, vacuum lines, etc. Just cleaned up underneath.

As you can see from the driver door, some of the body work is done. The doors are both done. I just need to finish the back rockers and the roof. And I've almost had my hands on a front end too many times to count, but no dice.

And finally, just layin out.

God i hate the stickers but i'd think it would be some funny **** to see "it's a jeep thing, you wouldn't understand" somewhere on yours.

That is an awesome troll! You should put a bunch of off-road stickers on it.

I'll say what seems to be the concensus, I love the fabwork but not the super low Jeep itself haha.

Great stuff though man, good luck getting it finished!

I also love that rear bumper, Flush is the way to go imo.

Wow! When your slammed the pics from a distance look Photoshopped.

I haven't read through all the pages yet but I imagine its take more work to slam this thing than it takes to lift it. Lol. Bodywork is looking good too! Its like perfectly level with the ground. I think its cool as long as it goes fast low n slow is stupid.

If I could make a suggestion though, lose the roof rack.

And (down the road maybe ) add a sliding rag top, that would make it sick. That's kinda pricey though.
