New exaust, very important.

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_215705.jpg

yes, a glass pack, dont judge until you hear it.

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_215727.jpg

Yes i welded front bucket seats into the rear end, making a much more comfortable seating situation and i just always wanted it...

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_215942.jpg

Picked up a couple identical bucket seats (minus thr color which is easy to take care of) from a pull apart place (my heaven) loving the look.

Engine is back togather and she went on her first test drive a couple days ago. Power increased 10x with all the new engine mods, i can spin my 35's even with 4.56 gearing.

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_220349.jpg

Get this picked up a rear driveshaft off a 85 jeep, identical to my front, so ill be doing a hack' n tap sye for the rear end to eliminate those slight vibes.

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_220805.jpg

So far shes going well, cosmetics are up next as well as some other tweeks here and there.

homedone overhaul-forumrunner_20130915_221131.jpg

Oh, and added another 1" soon to be 3" onto my already 6.5" long arm lift kit

Use Firefox addon https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefo.../rotate-image/
Right click right click... easier than laying on your side.
