What kind of bedliner did you use and what did you do for prep? Looks awesome! I was looking at doing this on my xj.

I usee Herculiner. Got a half gallon at pepboys. For prep you want to make aure your body is really clean. I would suggeet washing it and dry it completely to get all the oils off. Then use painters tape to mask off where you want the bedliner to end. Make sure you mask each end covering the lighys generously. After that simply roll on the first coat evenly. Let it dry for an hour. Apply the second coat. And repeat for another coat if you have more bedliner left. which you should more than likely. Take the tape off immedietly, do not let it dry all the way as it could peal off the bedliner with it. It has happened to me, I just used a razer blase to cut the edge of the tape to get an even peal. After that let the paint cure overnight before driving or washing it.

Ya gonna start looking into upgrading your axles and tires too?

yeah eventually.. what do you think? 8.8? d40? what gears are good for a daily driver? 4.11's? and ill get bigger tires when i get a car as my daily or a stock cherokee. my tires are perfect for daily driver/light trail rig.

Here is a formula for determining gear ratio back to stock

(your tire size)/27x3.55

27 is stock tire size and 3.55 is stock gearing. so say u have 33's

33/27x3.55= 4.34

so for 33's to be close to stock gearing again you'd need about 4.30's

Hope this helps!
