The glasspack sounds really good, but i dont reccomend it for the highway, it kinda gets annoying. But, for 40 bucks, dang good deal, and it pisses off the ancient neighbors, so its exactly what i want hahahaha.

As for the carpet, meh. Its not to the point where the jeep is 100% mudder yet. Its still my dd, and im on a very tight budget, which goes for the lift as well, even though i wish i could do the RE 6.5" long arm kit, ill probably settle with an RC 4.5" long arm kit :/

I'll be cutting the glass pack out of mine. I could have gave it to you. Doubt there is any glass left in it and shipping prolly would have killed the deal.

Long week, and it isnt over. Took Bull over to my best friends house for the last few days, and we got to working on a prototype light bar. And i say prototype because we still are not done foolin with the bar itself. The mounts we made, although they aren't the best looking, are absolutely solid not going anywhere the bar, however, is the flimsiest thing ive ever seen, it wobbles on the road, so im almost afraid to take it out on the trail :wall: it most likely wobbles because the square lights didnt fit through the tube, and we had to crunch it down a bit more pics of the "finished" project later today, my phone was dead lol

Well, last two days have been slightly counter-productive....bought some rattle cans to get rid of that horrible almond white color. Rustoleum dark tide blue, and i might be pickin up some bedliner soon....however, my buddy Swiss54 came over yesterday before he left on a week-long vacation, and showed me that i popped a tire im not exactly happy. In my rage yesterday, i managed to break off all but about 8 bolts on the fender flares...oh, well, looks better now, and time for some trimming heres a few more pics...
