Not sure if im going to relocate the gas tank yet.. We'll see once i get the tires under it. If so i'll probably use a fuel cell

I think thats it for now.. it's all coming along just waiting for parts.. I'll get some pics up here soon..

 

Here are some before pics..

 

Lookin good. How are the bilsteins holding up? I am considering ditching the DT's 8000's already. They are much stiffer than I was expecting.

 

Thanks man. Great. So much better than I thought they would be. pretty soft. I ordered then through iro they were the cheapest I found. They were only like 300 shipped.

 

Good to know. When im ready ill def check out the iro price. Btw subscribed. Will be interesting to see you knock out that wild list.

 

Already in the process so it should be done by next week i'm hoping. Already have all the parts ordered or in the garage.

 

I am following this one!

 

When you are done that thing will be ridiculous Can't wait to see how it turns out.

 

Yeah i can't wait.. I can picture it all but I just want it to be done lol. I'm not going to chop it to hell like most guys do either.. I'm going to open the wheel wells a little more.. depending on how much stretch i need to stuff the tires in the rear i might relocate the gas tank or put a fuel cell back there.. i just want to keep it a full bodied cherokee and not an all out buggy.. and yes.. on 39.5" tires lol

 

howd you do your paint job? bedliner?

 

its all flat black rattle can.. then up to the body line is bedliner.. and the hood.. ill probably re do it this summer.. holds up pretty well on the trails though.. which is the main reason i did it.

 

what kinda prep work? and how many coats?

 

i just used a couple sanding blocks.. i scuffed the paint pretty good.. then went over it with the fine block.. i didnt put a whole lot of time into it.. thats why im redoing it.. 3 coats of flat paint and 2 coats of duplicolor bedliner

 

alright thanks i like the way it came out, for a simple paint job
