I think I may go get some matte black paint to take care of my sun bleached fenders. I don't really want to cut and fold, because I want to keep the stock look, but I do want my fenders to look a little nicer. hmmmmmm
Looks like after next Wednesday, I'll be looking for a new job! My seasonal employment is coming to an end. I'm looking forward to having a more consistent schedule, and being off on the weekends so I can take more wheeling trips. Hopefully I'll have some nice traveling pics for you guys soon. I want to take a trip to Colorado and Utah to check out some famous 4 wheeling spots and do a bunch of camping and hiking.
So here's a list of all the current mods: 3.5 inch Rusty's coil springs 3.5 inch Rusty's leaf spring packs Rusty's fixed upper and lower control arms 4 Rusty's hydro shocks with red shock boots Rubicon Express 1600 adjustable track bar Rubicon Express steering stabilizer JKS sway bar disconnects Receiver shackle with D ring I'm pretty happy with my suspension setup, and I now have good recovery points front and rear, and good recovery gear in the Jeep. I do need to get a Hi Lift jack soon though. Also besides all the mods, I've gotten a new radiator, thermostat, hoses, and hardware, new brakes all the way around, oil change, new air filter, and threw on some seat covers.
So this is what I hope my mod list looks like in 6 months. Nice looking Jeep, gotta love that Chrysler green.

Thank you very much! I've been dreaming of having suspension like this ever since my first Jeep. Next thing after the alarm and stereo will be skid plates. At least for the TC and gas tank.
