It grinds easier than mild steel but I spent so much time working on it.

The stars are different which is 1 reason I like them. They also remind me of the Spyderlock wheels that are the star pattern. They were just enough to get me free shipping too so I went ahead and paid the little extra for them. I love the way they look.

I'm doubtful I will have to with these huge brakes, but we'll find out. Maybe a bigger MC, I've got a dual diaphragm booster and MC from my 98 still. Might do that booster with whatever the popular MC swap is. Can't remember off the top of my head.

I know you can get some laser-ed out, but like a tattoo I don't know what I would get and have for forever.

Dang man, you've stepped up to a whole new level with this build. Love the way the wheels turned out by the way.

Thanks! I really like them. Should look good for a little while when the Jeep is clean before it's first trip.

Looking good, jealous of your progress! Im just a slacker I guess.

You figure out which MC your going to run? Ive heard the dodge 2500 is a good candidate...not sure on year specific or not..

I've got the Dodge 2500 Master Cylinder on my TJ. It bolts on, just have to extend the push rod coming out of the booster.

It was awesome. I should have it on all 4's in three weeks. Pics will slowly trickle in as more parts arrive and I pick things up.
