dude im loving those tires

 

Yes, I think I found the way I'm going to do the roof lighting without drilling a hole! I'll post up when I have it done.

 

alright cant wait to see what you came up with

 

Picked up a Procomp steering stabilizer at the local off road shop today for $40 and got it installed. Really easy, takes about 20 min. Definitely made a noticeable handling difference, great upgrade for the money. Also picked up a tow hook from harbor freight for a recover point. Bought a locking hitch pin along with it for $20.

I'm behind on pics, so here's a few of the recent upgrades, and a few after her bath.

 

NICE BUILD, THANKS FOR THE REPLY TO MY POST!!

 

Looks awesome man. You take real good care of it. Sweet!

 

I need some suggestions on what to buy next for the jeep.. Any input will be much appreciated!

 

I suggest front and rear bumpers, but also I would like to see how you wired the roof lights without drilling as well.

 

I second that, especially wiring the lights without drilling holes because I'd love to do that as well.

Also, it seems as tho you're having the same issue I am with the rear end sagging. My 96 XJ came with the up country package which is said to be an inch higher than stock. Well when I first picked her up it already seemed as tho the rear end had less wheel gap in the back than in the front. I kinda figured I'd maybe fix the issue with a rough country 2" inch budget boost kit including front spacers and rear shackles. The front end came out looking great but the rear not soo much. The rear end sits about an inch lower than the front and also when I threw the rear shackles on, the one on the right seemed to be kind of bent to the right. Long story short I finished the install and the back is still about an inch lower than the front and I'm still confused about why the right shackle leaf setup looks bent to the right towards the tire... Any ideas lol?

 

i'm gonna stay tuned to this if ya don't mind. lovin the jeep and the color.

 

Sweet jeep...

 

I might have missed it, but all-in-all how much did the build total cost come to? Thanks

 

The total build cost so far is about $6,500 give or take. That's including the jeep. So I'm roughly $1,500 in parts aside from what I paid for the jeep.

I've got a little cash for the jeep that's burning a whole in my pocket. I'm thinking of doing the H4 hid conversion with 6k bulbs. It would be a good quality conversion with nice projector lenses and an upgraded wire harness..

 

That is actually not to bad, seems me and you have the same type of budget got my baby for 5k, and have roughly 2k id be whiling to part with right now, but then again these things take time.

 

Oh yeah forgot to mention one more thing.. After I finished getting my wheels and tires mounted up at Discount Tire, another customer asked if I wanted to trade my old wheels and tires (BFG all terrains w/ decent tread on stock steelies) for his system. So I ended up walking away with a 450 watt Apline mono block amp, Dual 12" sub in a folded horn box, and a $20 bill so i could buy the wiring. Not a bad deal if you ask me. The sub is Walmart brand, but it will do for now. It actually hits pretty hard!
