Seriously I would trade it for a nice smooth to the body lines bumper as a base for my own tire carrier design.

If all goes well I'll be getting 5.5" RE coils and bolt on SRB's in a couple of days. Hope to only gain about an inch of lift but gain tons of articulation out of my leafs. Gonna swap them in when I finally re-gear.

Once I finish my jeep we'll start working on yours. I need to have something to wrench on that doesn't cost me money.

Picked up my D30 housing and knuckles, shackle relocation brackets, and 5.5' RE coils from Satiricalhen. Also took his heep for a ride think 35's and 4.56's is where I want to be.

When I actually plan a trip.... This place is only about 15 min. drive from my house. The ole lady was riding my *** so I deciced it was time to go wheeling. We're going to have to plan a trip this summer, we can meet at my place and hit up the river plus a couple other local places I know of on our way to Gulches.

Alright, the last part for my jeep should be on it's way somewhere. Then theoretically I should be able to drive it and not have issues.
