Planning Ahead
Long time no talk boys and girls. Having joined the army in Nov i havnt even been home to try working on my jeep. But im saving up money and as soon as i get stationed and set up somewhere i plan on picking up my jeep and continuing to fix and build it.
I need to start with all the little problems, still no lights, most of the guages dont work, and my 4 wheel drive went out about a month before i left. After fixing all the little stuff though i have some ideas for going bigger.
im thinking new axles, most likely dana 44 front and rear. then uping the lift to 5-6inches. with that i could probably roll some 35-37 inchers under it.
its going to be a little while so i have time to think and go over any ideas from anyone. so feel free to pitch in.
Hope everyone is doing well and i cant wait to get back with my jeep.

No, I don't lick fish.
Hey man, just read your build. That's quite the artisan interior. Being a multi-generational woodworker myself, I'm very impressed with the interior... and the chop is very clean too. I hope you haven't abandoned this project, and thank you for your service on this fine Memorial Day as well.

Not finished but pretty close, my custom wood dashboard. What do you guys think?
