Unfortunately, I did nothing to the Jeep. I just figured it was time to finally install the 4 new Bilstein shocks that have been lying around for months into my Chevy Colorado. I've just got parts laying all over everywhere... Hope I finally get the time to install the Bushwhacker flat flares, snorkel, and Lebaron vents SOMETIME this summer!

Ordered a small hood scoop for it, and pondered a mild stroker build. My uncle has the 4.2 that I'd need, cause I can't swap my 99 into my 01 cause of emissions so that negates a full out stroker. I don't want to buy another engine and all that either.

Once i get a job again I'm going to get a cable op cutout from Jeggs and throw a glasspack on there, just so I'm legal if I get pulled over for being a noisy ****.
