oh so that's why they're called fender washers lol


and my your beard has grown

 

Looks good Mike. That bumper is sick.

 

Good work getting everything cleaned up. The screw in the washer bottle is real common, even when the instructions warn the installer. lol You just got a new washer bottle or did you patch the POs mistake? Works either way. Really like that rear bumper with the quarter panel guards.

 

I grabbed a bottle from the JY a while ago, just finally got around to putting it in. I love the bumper and when I get my welder I'm gonna build another one for my red 2 door

 

Pulled the trigger on the new lift today


Those 5150's are gonna look SEXY under her

 

Oh yeah! I bet ur gonna have one of the smoothest rides on this site

 

So I ended up finding a wrecked '00 with a nice 5.5" lift and almost new 33" pro comp MTs along with a host of other goodies like a 231 with an SYE installed and a smooth running 120k mile 4.0L all for less than what I was about to spend on a lift, TC rebuild/SYE install and wheels n tires


Both my XJ's got a tire upgrade


Getting the lift off



Painted the Carr light bar black to match the color scheme of my build
Wanted the leave the emblems intact(I think they look cool)




Came out great I think

 

damn you for keeping that light bar lol - looks great

 

Thanks, if everything goes as planned ill be doing the lift swapping tc's and rock sliders next weekend

 

Installed the D-ring mounts on the rear bumper today

 

Welds don't look half bad Mike.

 

Some goodies arrived today


Lots of lift parts to start cleaning tomorrow

 

Also ordered my Bilstien 5100's today. Decided against the 5150's as I don't really need them.

 

More goodies arrived today

 

sweet man. Good deal on the wrecked ride huh? I'm definitely gonna watch this build
