bump stops are great, that way you can keep your tire rolling at full flex. when i took my old jeep up to shamokin it didnt have bumpstops and i got stuck because back wheel fully flexed in the wheel well and since no lockers no tire spin, was trying to do a hill climb in two wheel drive that had like mounds on top of it and had to roll down bottom of hill and try again lol. then almost flipped going down the hill..she was a good jeep lol

Next think on my list is rust prevention crap and insulate the inside going to east wood picking up thermocoustic liner, rust converter, encapsulator and a few other goodies should be started in the next week and a half or so also gotta caulk the windshield, after that depending on time and funds will be picking up MONSTALINER. So pretty stoked also cut little more fender just a little
