Wink Its Mainly Stock... We'll... Mainly. *56K Beware*




After some hard off-roading I was forced to replace the regular CV joints on my jeep. I kinda broke them while pushing my jeep to the breaking point. For a direct replacement of CV joints i was looking at about $900 bucks, but I had a friend who works down the street on drive shafts, and he had some spare conversion U-Joints laying around, so he pop'd them on (Welded of course), and bam, im back in the game. Total it cost to me was like $200, plus It was almost same day, besides the fact I had to wait till my jeep got towed home.

I also Sprayed the Wood Trim black and added some performance Carbon Fiber Trim:



You can also see my not so stock Alpine deck. Complete with a iPod cable routed into my hidden iPod compartment behind and above my glove box. (Duct Tape works well for this application). I've also got new speakers, and hopefully will be getting a Sub/Amp combo soon.

Thats about it for my jeep though, the rest really is stock.

The stereo and speakers just give the cool rumz factor to the whole equation.
