Nice progress! Can't wait to see this thing in action! My next build is going to be a tube frame cherokee hope you don't mind if I take some ideas!

I don't mind at all, that's why I share my build, this way someone will take what I've done and do it their own way and better way, there is always ways to improve something. As you mentioned tube frame would be the way to go, I did not have a tube bender at the time, but it would be a definite better way to go. My friend wants me to do a tube frame on his XJ.


I just had a look through your build, very nice work. that was quite a bit of rust to deal with, it came out good

You sir are awesome. And your fab skills are ridiculous.

how am I going to explain to my wife that I am in love with a Jeep?

Great build.

Thank you! What kind of tube bender are you using? I am in the market using a friend for all my stuff now

I'm using a Baileight RDB-50 manual tube bender

I like the RDB-50 as a manual bender, its got 3 ratchet speeds and does full 180 degree bend with one swing, great tool I think. I am eventually going to upgrade to a hydraulic bender.

This Cherokee is beautiful! Your fab skills are amazing and I just love the way this build is turning out. Are you going to shove the header panel back on the front there somehow?

I don't really even get that into offroad stuff, but fabrication is rad. Cool build!!

WOW! Those fenders really set it off. Great design!

yup I'm planning on having the original front header panel in there, my original one I cut a little bit too much off so I have to grab a new one from the junkyard.

Wow, amazing

Still plugging away at it, small update. its starting to take shape.

sweet build!!

on second thought, I ****in love the way the fenders came out. absolutely phenomenal man

holy cow looking sick
