uh... them two above are kinda ugly... lol... and what alot of people do and what im planning is to tie the cage into he front and rear bumpers along with the rock sliders... they have strong mounting points already and then ill probly drop acouple supports down to the frame in the center on plates over the frame and then plates underneith the frame bolted together... but frame stiffners are still gonna be a good thing to have...

im mad... i would a dana 30 last night wit 4.88's and abunch of other add ons for only $200 but he wrote back and said it was off a leaf spring jeep... dang it!

 

the blue one has suicide rear doors, that is cool. the red one, kinda ugly for the overall length but still very nice work.

 

oh yeah... deff not knockin there work... but just kind ooogly... lol

 

Really? It's been a few months since I lost my xj but I don't remember the unibody rails being that tall. 3 or 4 inches at most. Which is about the size of a common body lift. I may be wrong, but I didn't think it would sit that high. More on topic, anyone have any pics of a good chop job on a wj?

 

3-4 inches is a huge body lift. most people don't recommend going over 2" on a body lift. once you figure 3" for the regular unibody frame and 3" for the wrangler frame(being conservative) you're looking at the rocker panels sitting 6" above the bottom of the frame rails. To me, its not worth the hassle involved.

 

i stacked frames with a ramcharger and a powerwagon once... lol... but i should have just swapped the D60 front and rear in the ramcharger and swapped the 360 and 727 in for the 318 that was blown and the slipping tranny... instead i just scrapped the whole thing... yes... even the axles and everything ran fine... im an idiot... i know...

 

Makes sense. I wasn't factoring in the wrangler frame. Your right, it would take a fair amount of custom panel fab to make it look clean.

 

Dude, these are awesome!! Depending on paint scheme you could do alot with something like this!! Great work!

 

the red long bed crew cab is accualy a commanche lmao.

 

Cut outs are BA

 

heres mine as soon as this damn rain stops ill reweld everything

 

i think of it this way, if you can't find an MJ make one out of a 2 door XJ.

 

and if u ant find a 2 door ...chop a 4 door

 

4 door chop tops look good too, but i think i'd rather have 2. seen a few around town that i'd like to have.

 

this thread makes me want to get a 2 door to play with
