Hey guys... I did an into but have some new stuff so I figured id put a few more up...
This is the jeep when i bought it (while in iraq like alot of guys on here lol) its a 99 and had 20k on it and i picked it up for 4500



While overseas i bough an Iron Rock Off road 6.5" long arm lift, some 34" superswamper ltbs on procomp rims, a dana 44 from a junk yard (also bought diskbrakes, arb lockers, 4.10 gears, riddler covers, and a truss), came home on leave for christmas right after we got back and put it all on.



Then i went back to fort polk (louisiana) without the jeep and waited for my next leave. Next leave came around and i had more parts in the garage (Tom woods driveshafts, roll bar, jcr front bumper,borla exhaust, kc lights, SYE, stuff like that) and put that on. I also got rid of the silver stripe and "jeep logo" and ordered some in black.







then i took it out for a test drive (after trouble shooting the brakes.. didnt like it when i cut the abs out up in the mountains in MT





(p.s. i had no idea who those people were in last pic.. haha some broken samuri on the side of the path

And since then, I drove it from MT to LA, got a hanson rear bumper, Jcr sliders, a winch, snorkel, and just ordered some super swamper thornbirds, a little taller and a little wider

I love it! its really great quality and the kit came with everything (i didnt go with their shocks as i had some skyjacker 6.5 inch lift shocks from somewhere... rides great for being that high (minus the sound the swampers make lol)

customer service is also A+ , i broke one of their brake lines (which are steel braided inside a rubber sleeve) and they next day aired me on that day..

only thing i recomend is pay the little extra money for the jks quick disconects on their site
