Put some wide angle fog lights on the hood for side view during night wheeling.

Testing flex with the jenky suspension some one put on this jeep. 8" lift front/rear. Front 4"springs doubled 2"coil spacers. Rear welded 4" blocks to axle and springs/shackle combo.

Climbs well though so vacuum axle works.

Made some mud flaps from one semi truck flap.

Lemme know what you think. I bought it for 500 with lift and body the way it was. I'm doing a Jeep rebuild instead of a build this time cause of the cheapness for the jeep. Will try to take more pics of rebuild.

they aren't bad its the shackles that worry me. The only real problem is my jacked up doubled spacers up front extended track bar and the steering angle with the stock design.

looks good. Next time post your links for your picture under each other so they dont run together like that. Nice job on the rear.

brutalxj 12-13-2010 08:00 PM

No please no ply wood it was going so good.

GIjoe 12-13-2010 08:15 PM

Im gunna do that to my XJ! chop the top that is.... minus the plywood :lol:
I'd say you gotta good deal on the rig though...

longshot4612 12-13-2010 08:29 PM

dude i love it, its going great i just wish u didnt chop it ugh but it looks good though i like it so far! How you do the truck flaps?????:2guns::boxing:

projectmayhem 12-14-2010 01:33 AM

why mud flaps?

BajaCrawler 12-14-2010 03:48 AM

yeah i dont like the plywood either i'm gonna do soft top when wallet is more full. sheet of plywood and piece of plexi glass was 30 bucks as opposed to like 150+ for soft top.

Mud flaps=no sheriffs bugging me about flying rocks and giving me tickets(almost happened).

took a dump truck trailer flap cut it in half and mounted it to rear bumper. took 25min and works like a charm.

projectmayhem 12-14-2010 11:02 AM

im glad tennesseans dont have to really worry about the pokie
