New Rough Country 4.5 inch leaf springs just came. Decided to do the leaf pack instead of the AAL. Going to work on it tomorrow. Way too hot today-104 degrees outside, yeah no thanks.

So still finding time between family stuff and work to finish up building this thing. Think I found the direction I would like to take it. I'm going to make it a prerunner style XJ.

Parts that will be ordered soon.

Rusty's Offroad prerunner bumper
JeepSpeed.com stickers
HID fog lights for the bumper
Prerunner style light bar


Pics to come with recent progress and continued build.

So here is the list of things I will be ordering this Thursday. Won't be able to install anything if they come on the weekend since I will be at the Badlands Offroad park in Indiana but anyways......

IRO long arm upgrade
McNeil racing front fiberglass fenders
IRO brake lines
JKS quick disconnects
Rusty's Offroad prerunner front bumper
Rusty's Rx300 performance shocks
IRO exhaust kit w/high flow cat*

That's pretty much it. There may be a few small things here and there but those will be the major upgrades.

*going to get the exhaust done so it comes out right before the rear tire on the passenger side and get the 5.9L grand cherokee tip welded to it. Should look good.
