Figure I'd try and update this alittle. Switched my headlights back. Got new wheels from a buddy for free! Painted them, now I should have them on Sunday!

Since these wheels are stick and I have a 10.50 tire will my tires get sucked in enough where I can run no flares and they won't stick out too bad?

There's not much going on in my thread right now but here in the next few weeks I'm going to order some parts for Stella. Such as a new track bar, steering stabilizer, rebuild kits for the lockers, and maybe new axle joints. I'm also planning on bed lining the bottom half of my jeep and taking the side molding off. And I'm gonna modify my roof rack to sit lower. I went trail riding with a friend yesterday that's new to this scene. He's got a 99 Tj, with a BB and 31s.

another update. we opened the diff. it was dry as a bone, 2 pins in the locker were jammed in and broken which was causing my front end to be locked 24/7 p.s. dont ever trust someone that said they changed the diff. fluid before you get a vehicle. cause it hasnt leaked the whole time weve own the jeep, so now i also need a rebuild kit for the front end, and a new ring and pinion, unless i can find a HP dana 30 with all the guts in it and doesnt need rebuilt.

Here are pictures.

As of right now I have no guts in the front end and no axle shafts until we buy new parts.

No, there's just a dip in the rock I think cause it didn't have a flat tire. Lol
