Can't wait to see your Jeep after all of the latest changes. I'm thinking it's going to look pretty cool. You've got me thinking again about doing something more to mine.

You going to run coil springs, coil overs, air shocks???
i think i am going to run the FOA coilovers. i was thinking air shocks but i dont know how heavy the jeep will be and they dont ride as nice as coilovers. the FOAs arent much more than airshocks either. maybe $100 more

Right on. I'm sure i'll move on from coils in the future, for now they're working fine. For right now, I want to fix the weak 44 issue, picked up a D60 and a D70 last week.
ok so i got some more work done today. i got the back cut off and started the comp cut on one side. i need to clean up my roof cut a bit and trim a little more off the quarter panel. i have to pull the gas tank out before i start on the drivers side because i will be cuting half of the gas cap off.



yes i have been busy lol
so im getting a little bit done every day. i only get a few hours to work on it each day so progress is slow. but here is what i got done today
started the comp cut on the drivers side. its a little more complicated than the passenger side because of the gas tank filler.

got the gas tank pulled out and set aside. i will have a bunch of clearance in the back now that i will be mounting the gas tank ontop of the floor in the back


and here is a pic of the clearance the back tires will have.

Kinda sad to cut up a new xj, Are you gonna have to cut up the floor in the back for the coilovers and shocks. On a side note I am giving the 44 in the front alot of thought, gotta do it on the cheep though.
