Well i have been working on this for a long time and finally got around to writing my build and joining the forum. Well here she is all bad looking stock!Attachment 154015
I bough her in for $4200 all she needed was a thermostat housing easy day. On my first trip after getting her ready for the road the front breaks locked up on me smoked the breaks:brickwall:
Got fixed same day.

So as you can see in the photo the for sale sign well the Great Wife and I have just closed on the house so the lift has arrived so the lift is it for while. As you can see i am still unpacking boxes I ordered a Rustys 3 in lift kit with full springs and adjustable lower control arms. Thought that was all i was going to need! Attachment 154021

After a while of this I notice a need for more parts adj track bar and rustys off road have duty steering. Very well worth it 3/4 DOM very nice! Sorry no pictures. At this point I stayed clear of CL and got a set of 33"s from a guy at work lots of tread left still no alignment, pictures later sorry
