Yeah I bought painters tape already at a discount store called Ollie's. Half price for name brand tape. I've had bad experience with cheap painters tape.

So it took 4 cans of OD green to paint about half of your jeep? The bottom half is still bed-lined, right?

Yes. I still have some touch up and the roof to do. I have more Raptor liner ill be using. That is the reason I didn't tape it off.

Looks good, I'm doing the same thing to my 91 this summer. Something about being in the army that makes you want to paint your jeep OD green. HOOAH

I'm doing the unit and vehicle number also. But that comes after I redo the the bed liner on the bottom.

On a side note, I will be putting new door speakers in and running new speaker wires to all four speakers. I may have to clear that with low range first.

Finished touching the paint up and added the vehicle ID's. I'm going to redo them in black though.

I redid the headliner in digital camo and ordered my entry level lift. I got the Rough Country 3" lift with rear springs because it fits my budget at this moment. I could have waited but my suspension is shot and I need new components pronto. It should be here next week, and will be installed as soon as I get it. I will post before and after pics to document my gains.

I have the same kit, i added fst low pro relocation brackets and gained a wonderful ride and great flex.
Don't forget to bump stop all for corners, with out i broke a shock mount on my axle when i hit a pothole. I can fit 33's with minimal trimming.

Thanks, BarrelMaker. I got new bump stops when I ordered the lift. The rear ones are shot. Plus I've already trimmed my fenders doing the cut and fold.

Here is my new headliner. (And my kids)

The thumbnail is correct on my end but when I open the pic up it is sideways. Sorry about that. Lol
