and i wouldnt mess with a wrecked one, you could easily have to spend close to 500$ driving from jy to jy looking for parts and wasting gas. what city do you live in? id be happy to help you find one.

started thinking about what my future plans for this build are going to be. Gonna keep it looking clean, very capable offroad, and still be able to dd it. in order of what i want to do:
-lower it
-get some 20'' rims
-low profile tires
-2 15'' subs
haha just kidding.
within the next few months:
-get ac fixed
-re seal diffs
-buff paint and get rid of all the scratches
-fog lights
-crager soft 8s 4'' bs( i really want blue beadlocks like ktmracer's rig, but probably not)
-tint front 2 windows 35% and cargo windows 5% (so i dont have to worry about theft)
-get an amp and hook my sub up
-make some sort of carpeted shelf for the left side of the cargo area, (same height at my sub box so i can make a nylon top that lays on top to hide the whole cargo area and sits l level with the rear seat and rear window)
-blue halogen headlight bulbs, new projector housings
-led interior lighting. (half of my bulbs are out)
-clear turn signals/ maybe smoke rear lights. (please give me some feedback)
when my 33s wear out:
-get rid of the spacer and blocks
-rustys 6.5 full leaf packs
-rustys 6.5 coils
-35'' tires/ full size spare
long term plans :
-rear tire carrier bumper
-long arms
-lockers
-diff covers
sound good?
-lower it
-get some 20'' rims
-low profile tires
-2 15'' subs

just been driving it lately, allignment got out of wack somehow when it took her wheeling, the steering wheel is pretty crooked and when i turn or go over bumps it makes popping noises and i can feel it through the floor, so gonna have to send her to the shop to get things fixed soon.

^^^^ similar thing has happened to a lot of us. It may not have been wheeled as hard before. Check the track bar, sometimes the bolts come loose and can cause the popping. I say check the track bar mounts, right behind the steering stabilizer before you send it in to the shop.
Hope that helps you out.
