Taking off my flares I got a great idea. I sprayed them with PBlaster before getting started, then coated the bolts with anti seize. All of them came off but two. I just ground them off and welded a 1/4-20 bolt to them.

I've got one of the Lincoln 120v welders you can get from Lowes or Home Depot and its great. Wasn't too expensive if I remember right. And you can even hook it up to gas.

Pickin up a set of 5 half tread 31" all terrains mounted on a set of wrangler ravines either today or tommoro
I would just mount my 31s from the other jeep but the fronts on those are pretty worn out and I'm pickin these up for a steal

Picked up my wheels and tires today. They're in even better shape than I thought they would be!!! Treads about 50% and the spare is 100%!!! Very little dry rot. Got all five for 250
Got my shacle relocators from HD off-road engineering. read some great stuff about them they use the uni frame bolt slots used to mount a hitch as an extra mounting point and there's a ton of adjustability built into the brackets
