Well being this is my DD I originally wanted to keep it somewhat stock looking but I couldn't take the fender rubbing anymore... I cut and folded the fronts and I really like the way it came out!

Today was also a very good day, the doors on my jeep were pretty shot with rust holes and the inner seams are pretty much gone, as well as the front fenders have rust. I picked up 4 complete doors and 2 front fenders that are all rust free for $200. I'll be sandblasting them myself and using epoxy primer then painting them gunmetal. It'll be a learning project for me as my dad is a metal fabricator/auto body man, he will be helping me through the painting process!

I see your running some Kenda Cleaver's, How do you like the mud terrains?
I just picked up some A/T's for our 99 and they seam like a very potent tire. I've read some reviews that say they're a highly underated tire.

After work today I pulled my Jeep in and gave it a very thorough inspection on the hoist, everything is actually doing very well. Only things I noticed are the transfer case is leaking slightly around the SYE which is an easy enough fix, and my tires are wearing faster in the center compared to the outer so I'll be bringing the tire pressure from 30 PSI to 28 PSI and give that a try!

Well the airbag light has annoyed me long enough! After reading codes, looks like I'm in need of an airbag control module. I just purchased one on eBay for 29.99!
