Caution sign yellow with some metallic flake. If anyone cuts you off when it's that color, they deserve to have your bumper peel off their roof like a sardine can.

I've followed this build ever since I've been on the forum and I loved it every step. I'm so sorry to see it end like this especially around Christmas time when money is especially tight. Hopefully everything works out for you no matter what you end up with. Be sure to let us know what you're selling in your part out because I'm sure we would be happy to pitch some money your way to help out.

haha yeah man i couldnt let it go..plus ive put so much $$$ in it it would be stupid to sell everything. were gonna cage it, throw some better offroad tires on, paint it, im gonna lower it and she will be a beast.
and to keep everyone updated, the plans for this go
suspension: 6.5 or 4.5" IRO long arm lift
tires: 33 or 35" intercos (unsure which tires for sure yet)
wheels: cragar 15x10s may do DIY weld on bead locks
axles: D30 w/ AA tabs, locked, chryco 8.25, locked
same drivetrain
roll cage
some other odds and ends but this will take awhile to do but should definitly be worth it in the end
