Little update. Went to uwharrie the other weekend with triad jeep club and had a blast. Came back and found I broke the center pin on my driver side leafs so had to replace that and make sure my u bolts were tight.

Well today I replaced my steering box with a refurbished one (got tired of trying to find a Durango one sorry) in an attempt to fix this popping noise I have when I turn left. Well the swap was good and my steering is tighter and all, but the popping noise is still there. I'm going to inspect trac bar bolts and maybe get a steering box brace, but I have to get this popping noise away it's annoying!!

Sorry I haven't updated this in a while. Popping noise turned out to be dirt stuck in the hemi joint on my adjustable track bar haha.
Anyway, since my last post I've gotten new general grabber at2 33s, locking lug nuts (huge pain to get on and off), new subwoofer to replace my blown one, bigger amp, redid my headliner with real tree fabric and did a bastard pack with s10 springs.
Upcoming mods are 4.56 gears and maybe a rear locker, new radiator to fix my slow coolant leak and a full sized spare.

Nice build! This is one of my favorite on here! I like how your keeping it clean and not cutting everything up, check out my build! I'm only 15 and a freshman in high school

Thanks. I actually ended up trimming the front fenders some the other day. I think I'm going to be mounting the stock flares higher up. But here's a pic from wheeling a couple weeks ago

Well I sold the old jeep a couple weeks ago. It was sad to see her go but it was time to move on. Since then I have gotten a 2005 Tahoe z71 which I plan to just do minor modifications to - more of a drivers car. Here is how I left her..

Both haha I'm at state doing mechanical engineering but the increased highway driving with the jeep just wasn't cutting it for me and I didn't have time to work on it and stuff anymore so thought it was just time to pass it on. Oh well I learned a lot from it and had some good times!
