Cool My First Jeep!

Hello everyone!

I just bought my first jeep of any type! *Cheers* I love it I picked it up for a great price and I am doing my first major off road Build!

I work for an Off road shop (No plugs intended nor will there be!) So am copying one of our other builds with a few minor tweaks here and there.

I wanted to be able to rock crawl and keep a good DD out of this.

First thing I did was standard mant. Went over everything with a fine tooth comb!

I am going with RC 6.5" X-series long arm kit with Slip yoke Eliminator kit with drive shaft.

Some spare 15x10 alum rims

4 BF Goodrich 33x12.50-15 KM2's

I will get started on the lift this weekend!

I will get some pics posted Sunday afternoon.

Took me awhile to get it done (Working 80 to 90 hours a week.)
This was my first ever lift on a truck and this is my 2nd truck in my life the first one was a 1984 K-10 long bed that my father left me when he passed.(Let me tell you the things in and too that truck are far beyond description)

Here's some pic of the build!

Here's the front end back together...I know I didn't get any pic of the tear down but it went smooth save for the rear shock bolts breaking off.
