Justed wanted to say hi from one National Guardsmen to another.

I want to chop my jeep so bad but its my daily driver. Are you gonna put the tailgate at the front of the bed and use it as a rear window, or are you gonna chop it up and use it at the back like a truck bed tailgate?

 

use it as a back window...an have it removable so when its nice out i can ride around without it....doors are comin off next week

 

I'm watching this build...I'm gonna do the exact same thing eventually...thanks for sharing it!

 

looks awsome. I can't wait to see it finished
