is it a bearing whine?

 

I don't know. I would imagine a bearing would be constant and not change when changing from N to D. I am wondering if the torque converter is the problem. I have noticed during acceleration, the RPMs will jump up then come back down.

 

Bedlined the grill and inserts today. The body is going to get painted desert tan on Monday. Should I leave the inserts as they are or have them painted desert tan also?

 

See if they look better tan than black and you can always repaint

 

Subbed! Can't wait to see it in desert tan!

 

That is what I am thinking also. Easy enough to paint over the tan with more bedliner.

 

You and me both.

 

Dropped it off on Monday to be painted. Should be ready Friday.

 

I will post more pics tomorrow but you get the idea. It looks really good in person.

 

Damn man. This thing sure has come a long way. One of my inspirations for buying my XJ.

 

Thanks. It is getting there. Window tint is next then bumpers, then Aussie lockers.

 

I think it would look better with a tan front grille but i dig the black underneath

 

More pics.

 

Really liking this build. If my Jeep wasn't such a rarity, I would repaint it desert tan in a heartbeat. I just can't bring myself to repaint the only magenta cherokee I know of haha

 

Thanks.

This is a nice perspective. Bone stock and now.
