So I've gotten a few things done over the past 2 weeks. I went out to the jy for a random visit to just look around and found myself some rough country 2" aal's. I've had the sagging rear end for sometime now and decided that this would be a simple cheep way to fix that 2.5" at first and have now settled down to 2". It's got the whole thing a little raked but looks much better than before.

Also, me and some buds went out exploring and found some new trails to hit around campus. I've got a few pics from it below. I've also got a couple videos of a small mud hole we played in and will have those posted up tonight.

Also, I've had death wobble for a long time now and have finally ordered new tre's and ball joints. I'll have those on this weekend.

U-joints
Pinion seals
Rear BPE's

JY Finds:
Gas tank skid
Front skid
Rear window with defrost delete
Rear side windows that have the vent that opens
Black interior accessories(door handles, window cranks, etc.)

Mods:
Cut front fenders more
Quick disconnect speakers in doors
Wrangler style hinges for easy removal
Half doors cut and started to be welded
Repainted roofrack and rebuilt gutter mounts and bars to support

Pics will be up as soon as I can find my camera to get shots of it all

Man, I apologize for the extremely late response. I haven't updated or checked this thread in a long time. Give me a second and I'll see if I can find a picture of it. If I can't, search removable doors in the fab section. There are many, many write ups on it.

So It's been quite some time sense I've updated this thing so here goes...

Half doors in the works
rebuilt the roof rack
found front end and gas tank skids at the jy
flooded the hell outta it
stripped the carpet
bedlined the floors
bedlined the rockers
lifted an extra 2"
got my spare 31" mounted
roof rack lights
tinted tail lights and marker lights
rusty's 6" shocks
RC adj track bar
tinted rear windows with vents
replaced rear driveshaft u-joint and pinion seal
welded up a motorcycle mirror to bolt on for use when doors are off
overhead consol(to be installed)

I think that's it for right now. If i can remember more, I'll add them

Oh and who says they dont trust EMT for a roof rack? Held 3 150-200 pound men, 31" spare, tool box, jerry can, high lift, and shovel. So lets say almost 750 pounds.

Nice build thread man. Your ride is coming along nicely. Wish I had some money to put in mine. I wish I could find me a front skid, too. I'm jealous of you and Garrett lol.

How did you wire the roof lights? drill holes? love to see how u did it.

Like the jeep looks like its coming along nicely

I about cried at the picture with the water in the floor boards its to nice for that lol

adamk

Thanks guys. Yea the water ruined the carpet so that came out and the floor was bedlined.

As for the roof lights, when I get off work Ill snap some pics. But the wires just run through the drivers door frame
