It's the firestik door jamb mount but I just drilled some holes and ran some bolts and nuts through them. It's worked out fairly well but it took some tweaking to get straight

Well good news! For Christmas I collectively and greatfully received a hi lift jack, putco wiring harness upgrade, and I DIY winch bumper! I've got a lot to do for the rest of the Christmas break. I'll post pictures as I install things. Might also be going to ure Friday.

Nice job. It's really clean.
Sorry for being a total noob, but what is this "throttle button thing to make it shift better" that you're talking about?

I think he meant cleaning the the throttle with the seafoam but I'll let him answer for sure.
Saw your Jeep a week or two ago in the church parking lot as I was walking the dogs. Looking Good! and soon to be looking better. I did the Putco a few months ago, Great upgrade!

Just picked up some 33" duratracs today for $200! Little low on tread but definitely still worth the money. Should have them on by the end of the week I'm pumped.

33s looking pretty good, definitely a lot louder than the 31s lol. Oddly enough, there's no rubbing in the front, but the passenger rear is rubbing on the leaf spring just barely. I guess I'll either get some wheels with less back spacing or some spacers.

So it's been a while, but I got some 1.5" wheel spacers to cure some rubbing issues, but that caused other rubbing. I trimmed the fenders a little but kept the stock flares. I thought it turned out pretty well and I have no rubbing problems. Check it out!

So my doors seemed to find their way off today... Should be really fun for the summer I thought plus my friend might be giving me his old tube doors.

Well I don't usually like to post pictures of myself but I thought this was fairly noteworthy as I graduated high school yesterday lol.
