So, I traded a dirt jump mtn bike that I had about $850 in for a boat, trailer, motor, new marine battery, and trolling motor that a guy was selling for $1400, I kept the trolling motor and battery and traded the rest for a 2004 Suzuki Z400 Quad, then I traded that for the XJ...

 

So, going to catch every one up. I gator guarded the outside, that stuff is awesome! Then went riding with some friends, and I knocked my connection to the vac motor off and lost 4wd. So, I got stuck and pulled out by a wrongler
The passenger floor filled up with water and was nasty any ways so I tore it out. I have replaced the rear hatch lift arms and I got 2 racing swats for $30 thanks to CL! Also picked up a Thule gutter rack system for $50! And then I sanded and sanded and rattle can painted the top, spray can can be nice with proper prep work!

 

Hofa leaf spray paint? mine is the exact same color

 

Went wheeling evening after painting, and revenged the hole I got stuck in last time! Hit it more to the right and I could have done it in 2wd! Today I worked out a deal with a guy on CL to trade my wheels and tires, Cragar d windows 15x10 with 33-12.5 buckshot mudders and $100 for his 18x9 XD Rockstars with 275/65R18 maxxis buckshot mxts both of have pretty much new wheels and tires! Doing the trade tomorrow!!!

 

Italian olive satin krylon

 

Those rims are going to look pretty sick!

 

I like it...gives me some ideas....NICE

 

So guy with the Rockstars lost the key to his locking lug nuts and now I have to wait till Sunday! Time machine us tomorrow's project!!

 

Hurry up already I want to see the new wheels, while we are all waiting what size lift you have?

 

Good luck with the Rockstars. They are known for breaking but they are a wicked looking wheel!

 

Nice Jeep man, your a good trader!!

 

I have a 4.5 RC lift. So the guy with the Rockstars decided to want my wheels and tires and $250! I don't know if I'm going to get them anymore, I did not know they were know for breaking.
Today, I'll be welding in some patches on drivers side floor and making a little more tire room on my fenders.

 

So, I'm keeping the steel wheel since this is a "Wheeler." Yesterday, made some room for my wheels to travel, I'll get pic of that tomorrow. And tonight I finished herculining the interior!! I highly recommend herculiner I used gator guard on the outside and I like the herculiner a lot more went on easy and laid thicker and seems to go further. Next step, is going to be bumpers.

 

Herculiner us the best. Not too pricey for a decent quality product and there always seems to be a sale to help with the cost.

 

Went Jeep camping over the weekend had a blast till I bent my crappy C channel upper control arms. Time to fab some beefy upper control arms!
