I have been buying parts all winter and finally got them on. I have never really been a Rubicon fan, But I will admit the new Trackbar,bracket and brace are beefy as hell. Also Rustys fixed LCA's, Longer shackles, Big daddy Tie rod with Moog ends and Rubicon RXT2000 steering stabilizer. Jeeps sitting at 4.5" now with soft 8's with 4" backspacing. Drives better then it has in a long time.

yeah, that guy is a douche bag, he can talk crap about your rig, which in my opinion is a real nice looking rig, we still havent seen a build on his, I think he needs to get a life, maybe he should be the one getting an s10 to "pimp" out. Nice rig by the way

I have to say... I love the yellow. I miss mine dearly. You have a sweet ride. And I for one love the ax mounting idea. Works great. Mine is going to be built as a rescue build not to different from yours. So what If he doesn't like what you have done. You didn't build it for him. You built it for you. My only worry about a system is it flying up and smashing into me while wheeling. lol.... You can tie it down though... Forget that loser. He is probably a little punk kid that got beat up and the only way he feels he can get back at the world is through online trash talking. He probably plays world of warcraft all night using his mommy's credit card...... lol... Nice ride though bro...

If you had done everything exactly the same except it was red . . . I would be driving to IN right now to steal it. I've seen you around and always liked your rig, I like the idea of exploring more than hardcore wheeling too.

I already asked this in a different thread, but in case you don't catch it I know you'll check this: Where did you get that hook for your receiver? Someone on here mentioned tractor supply, but this

http://www.tractorsupply.com/webapp/...g=true&cFlag=1

is not the same as this
.

Looks awesome, thanks for the inspiration.

I love the idea of the compressor in the back.

I was thinking of doing this when the funds allow.

Any tips/tricks that I should be aware of?

Thanks in advance.

PS - NICE RIG!!!
