Decided to install my new winch instead of fixing my passenger window that decided to fall in. Still not excited to start that mess. Also need to change out front springs, add longer brake lines and bumpstop

In the last few weeks the xj got 3.5" springs in the rear, 2" spacers in the front, ditched the rear swaybar and disconnects for the front sway bar. Still need to install a longer rear brake hose. Sliders coming soon.
The tacoma is in the process of a fabricated rear axle housing and traction bar.

It's been pretty well documented what has been happening to my jeep... Lol
Purchased in January... 4.5" lift, Hudfab front bumper, Hudfab HD steering, HD track bar, shackle relocation, Hudfab rocker replacement sliders, Hudfab tube doors, new D-window rimzzzz, 35" General Grabbers...
I'm sure I may have missed something in there, and this Saturday I get to see it

Process of pulling everything out of my free shell that I got. Gonna do stock suspenion(Thanks again Marty!) with no fenders in the front, flip the rear spring and comp cut it, gas tank mounted in the trunk, then swap in the engine from my old jeep and put a new clutch in. Should be good after that. Hoping to be ready by the 2013 wheeling season, might be 2014 though if I decided to stroke the motor before hand.
