HAHAHA my bad. The Rye starts flowing after a day in the shop!

 

Lol it's hard to know what look you are going for style wise, because of the flat rear hatch it has a similar shape to some sedans that look sweet with frenched caddy taillights

 

I would say continue to work on and finish the body work on the new custom tail lights. See how they look finished and judge them then. And if you decide you dont want to put the time into it to finish them, then it was never meant to be.

I have been looking into putting monstaliner on my floor pan and just buying a nice set of floor mats. For the sole reason being I will eventually put drain holes and plugs in the floor so I can hose the inside down after mudding. And only use the floor mats when I am using the XJ as my DD.

 

Needs moar LOWWWWWW.

 

Dude no lie.... Gangster! I'm starting my bagged and body dropped yota soon.
Have one tall have one low.
That way I can park them in the same spot in the driveway! Lol

 

Thanks! I am loving how its coming together! I love Yota's...but as you can tell, I don't know the meaning of a lifted vehicle haha

I got the floor seams cleaned, sealed, and the entire floors sealed. It came out great with the product I used, but I would change my method a little if I did it again. Heres the result.





The only problem is I did it at noon today and they need 12 hours to dry and 24 hours to cure....so I have NOTHING to do tonight haha. I will take some pics outside in sunlight later.

 

DISASTER!

So I was setting up the pedals and steering column again and when I closed my driver door, there was a ratchet on the floor. It got pinned between the door bottom and the rocker. It folded the panel and cracked the weld in a couple spots.

So my solution, I am going to try and cut it just above the old weld to some thicker metal. I will then clean the panel, and use it on the passenger door bottom as there is less to cut off the passenger door. Then make a new panel, a bit taller than the old one for the driver door bottom.

Just another side effect of being looooooooooooooowwwwwwww

 

updates?!

 

This is an amazing build! I am very jealous of your metal work and wish I had an ounce of that kind of talent. From a guy that rides air on my second vehicle, well done sir. Haters gonna hate. Keep doing your thing man, that is going to be a head turner for sure!

 

i woulda liked the tail lights more if they stuck out like the real old school cars.

anything is better than the stock cherokee tails, they are terrible.

 

Updates please

 

What he said! Lol

 

Not possible the oil pan would be dragging...

 

Trollolololoooll.... Read all of it buddy this guy knows his stuff

as people have said, not what I would do to a cherokee, BUT its still awesome none the less!
