o just got back from work about 8ish. it sucks working 10hrs then driving 3hrs home. I have to repo 2morrow for some extra cash and i got a customers jeep taking up my shop right now. Some one charged him like $800 to lift it 5ins. The rear is an s10 helper leaf and 2 2in blocks stacked on each other. the front is a rc 3in spring with a 2in puck on BOTTOM and stock control arms.

Im bringing him back down to 3.5 in front and 4in in back, putting in 4 new u joints, re welding his front seat brackets back together and a few other no no on his jeep. hope to have it done by sunday so i can have my shop back for mine

next on my agend is try to get some more black on her, and finsh the front tube flares.

I really need to figure out how to make some extra dough so i can take her further. I have built almost everything i can think of that doesnt require any money. I got a plan for some rear ubes (u-bolt eliminators) but there is no point starting them until i get an 8.8, and guess what, they cost money. even when i get the 8.8 im guna need a sye to install it or i will have to redue later.

If you have an suggestions on something you want me to make/try to make. throw them out. I am running short on time these days but should be working back in town in the next week or 2 so i will be home and can hopefuly get some **** done

What the hell? What kind of a homo would do that? I hope one of his own rides ****s a block out the rear and screws everything up. All in good spirit of course

DUDE no seriously, You could build a bracket to mount a 50 cal right in front of the chop on the roof, and then make a seat with risers, so someone can just chill on the back of your jeep with a damn .50 cal. How BAD *** would that be?!?!

im poor remember? 50 cal bullets are like 60$ for 20. if i had a fully auto .22 rim fire then i mightt think about it.

slight problem though, i lost gun rights when i was 17. It would be kinda obvious that i had one it i mounted it to the top of my dd

It appears that nobody makes a shackle relocation box for retail. Maybe a business venture to score some cash for the rig?

Develop and create a fully automatic crossbow. That isn't a rifle and you don't have to go through background checks to buy one. Then fab up a bracket and mount it.

How did you lose your gun rights when you were 17?
