Thanks, I was concerned about that as well. I don't have a welder, so I'll probably stop by my local shop and get that bugger reinforced. Maybe when I move into a bigger apartment that allows for some storage room I can correct my not having a welder issue.

What happened to the old War-J. Lets get some updates on her, any more pics? How did the tan and grey interior clash?

The old War-J is still going strong. 379,000 miles now, but the engine consumes and leaks some oil. I've added a Logans Metal 4x4 front winch bumper and ditched the Warn Multi-Mount winchplate. I installed a Firestik CB antenna with a base spring on top of the rack for the better signal strength. I also ripped out the carpet and applied bedliner to the interior towards the end of 2010, and it's holding up great. I plan on adding some side armor to the rear quarters and getting an aftermarket rear bumper down the road. That will be after an engine swap.

Other than that, I've mostly been working on the diesel Suburban you see in the first picture, as well as tinkering with my all-terrain trailer build. I lifted my trailer a little more, applied bedliner to it, and installed a receiver hitch and recovery hooks to the rear of it. I also acquired a 2004 TJ Unlimited this past summer.

Thanks for the support!
Yeah, I picked it up the Wrangler at the dealership on route 224. I need to fix a few things that the previous owner screwed up, but I like it so far.

BTW, check your messages.
