What's that with?? I was there once with my welding haha!

 

Before and after. Still working on bracing the sliders and then later the underside will get plated and rock rails added

 

One side done enough til I get paid..

 

Well this happened.. Thanks PO for using the wrong size wheel nuts... Thanks again to my pops who swapped out my wheel studs while I was at work!!!! Motor should be getting pulled today after I make a motor stand out of a pallet hahah

 

OUCH that looks like it was a fun ride

 

Rocker looks good. And at least you were on a dirt road when that happened. I had that happen to a nova in high school but on the road and it was a front wheel

 

Ohh but wait there's more... All I can say is triple check you're lugs, because some people find it fun to mess with them...

 

The one from today was more fun... If only people wouldn't try to kill me......

 

Good thing your ok though. Jeep withdrawal will set in quickly, anything bent or broken?

 

Other than the rotor having an odd flat spot, she's fine! Thankfully haha cop that came up behind me asked what I would do if I couldn't find the tire?? I'm not leaving a $300 tire in the woods... Hahaha

 

Been a long, long week.. Finally got the motor out and ready to tear into it when I have a couple days off!

 

Definitely not just wouldn't leave a 50 dollar tire cause I wouldn't want to pay for a tow haha

 

How hard was it to trim everything and how much did you end up cutting out? I have a 3.5" lift and found a killer deal on 35s and wondering how hard it's gonna be to make functional. Could you post detailed pictures of what you cut?

 

Cutting is easy, took 4" out of the front well, probably a lil too much. And then for the rear I used the cut and fold technique and took out maybe 2".



Before cutting





Just with 4" cut out of the front wells





Rear wells and front wells cut. Ended up rubbing really bad on the back (no sway bars) so I added a 1" block for the time being until I get my lift





Fully stuffed in the rear, so flex in the back isn't too good, but up in the fronts not bad for a 2" lift

 

So ive been toying around with the next big idea for the heep after the lift, and i think ive got it! Soft top with a roll bar/truggy like rear end and a steel rear bumper with a swing gate. And of course bracing the existing unibody for added strength
