New wiper blades and fuel filter cause the old(stock Im assuming) one was rotted and leaking heavily. Found some doors that arent rotted and a steel front bumper with tow hooks and a grill guard, should be picking them up this week/weekend and hopefully Ill get them mounted this weekend too. Come Monday it should look quite different, no rotted doors, steel bumper, no flares and Im probably gonna wire wheel the GC rims and paint the windows.

Pictures in bound! Painted both diffs, fluid and gaskets. Trimmed the fenders with a sawzall just cause it was fast and effective. Did some spray painting. Didnt get to the wheels yet, havent picked up my doors or the bumper yet either. I also backed into a big camper (fifth wheel) I wasnt paying attention last night and hit it at like 5mph.. Oh well, got a reason to trim the cargo area now haha!

Im testing out some 34x14.50 super swampers tomorrow, probably gonna pick them up. Any advice on a budget lift, 3in +? I just wanna fit the tires, everything around here I can climb at stock height so flex isnt an issue, just clearance. Kinda mall crawler, but mostly mud domination/mil spec cause Im ex cavalry. Really trying to get the chop mod going but need a Comanche donor.

A rough country 4.5" will work, along with some new wheels cause the backspacing on yours will not work. May need some other parts as well, thats a huge tire.

I know, a friend has them, brand new and he's willing to let me have them for $200 so Im trying to see if it would even make any sense to get them for my Jeep but its not looking that way. I think Im going to mount one today and throw it on for SAGs

Didnt bother much with the tires, was wrestling with one for a good bit just trying to get it on the wheel then gave up, no sense since I know it wont fit anyways. Finally got my bumper tho! Need some tie ins, not the best picture but here it is in the back of my Jeep
