Not going to lie, that things look amazing. good job on fixing it back up. I was I could find a 99 2 door for that price. how does she run?

 

She runs like a champ, no nocking or pinging. Shifts smooth except for going into reverse which it is my understanding that all Jeeps seem to grind a little bit when going into reverse. When I got it the wheel bearings were pritty bad but other than that I got an incredible deal.

 

Looks good!

 

I blacked out the lights this weekend with VHT night shades... Death wobble is sorted and the clutch went out just like that 2 days after I painted it... Got that fixed too.

I darkened the headlights too... I'll let you know how that goes tonight not sure if it will be bright enough. The Halogen bulbs arent as bright as I thought they would be.

 

Oh also you may notice I got my new tires put on, they look smaller than I thought they would but oh well... gives me something else to save up for. Also the back is still 1.5" lower than the front after the lift so some new shackles are on the way.

 

lookin good!!, i personally think clear markers and clear headlights would look better than black but thats just my opinion.

any plans to get rims? and what kind of tires are you saving for?

and yeah, all manual jeeps grind slightly when in reverse, my dads 03 wrongler always does it when i drive it

 

Nah I've never like the way clear against black looks... My goal is all black... I'm gonna get limo tint for it and keeping the rims its on now but hopefully having them refurbished and powder coated black... Well at the minute my jeep gets mainly used for highway travel so I decided to save a little money and get some regular 31" HT tread tires. I think I'll be saving up for some 32 ATs

 

Shackles for the back will be in tomorow... I'll let y'all know how that goes.

 

Cool! I like the bed liner/armor/paint idea
Where I wheel sometimes the trail brush gets pretty tight
(manzanita, ect)
bed liner might not scratch as easy.
