Got my new bumper today from forum member double_ot_xj( Thanx bro! ) . I'm digging the new look and he even hooked me up with some black fender flaires, since I was missing one of my white ones. Now I may pull my trim and paint it and under it to match.
Now on with the pix. :mrgreen:





Ill take some pix of how it mounts when I pull it this weekend to reinforce the frame where the bumper mounts to.

Next on the to do list GIT MY LIFT ON.

Well had a front shock blow out on me today. ****ing potholes on I 95. Now my front passenger side saggs a bit ,but its still drivable. Looks like ill be putting my lift and new shocks on sooner then planned. :twisted:

Even with a ****ed up shock my Jeep still managed to get over 400lbs of **** to the scrap yard after work.

Fired them up tonight and though not one of the trendy brands I'm very impressed. Great light for the money.

Got a little dirty today.

Up on the ramps looking for a couple sounds. Fixed the heat shield that was rattling me crazy. Still can't find the cause of a metal on metal clunk in the front drivers side wheel area. Happens almost every time I hit a bump. Almost sounds like something loose shifting bit I can't find ****.


Pulled my rear bumper ends tomorrow on my lunch break ill rough it up so I can bed line it tomorrow night.


Still haven't tackled the lift.

My "cold" air intake.

So far..
1. K&N cone filter.
1. Cone breather filter.
1. 60° angle.
2. Hose clamps.

Tomorrow after work ditch the rest of the air box, make a air dam and a bracket to hold it still.
