I will work on a video! It has a nice grumble and a little crackle when shifting gears. May be a little loud for some, but I like it!Looking good, any chance we could hear the exhaust? Just curious to hear the different the magnaflow makes
I will work on getting a picture of that soon, and thanks!Looks great! Picture of ZJ steering parts mounted?
I am paving the road for 35s but I agree, 33s would be killer with this set up as it is.Throw some 33's on there and you'll be ready to rock .
Factory sealed beams...Crappy even when they are brand new. There are numerous ways to upgrade the lighting. If you stick with Halogen, you have got to direct wire through relays to get the voltage up. For simplicity, I'd go LED...I have been looking up some headlight replacements, and so I checked out my own headlights of course... are these factory or were these changed out or upgraded?
Just curious what I am starting with.

I was thinking those Trucklite LED knock-offs a few people have been raving about.Factory sealed beams...Crappy even when they are brand new. There are numerous ways to upgrade the lighting.

I have the Chinese knockoffs and they are leaps and bounds better then the stock style. I have had them for a year now and have experienced no issues.I was thinking those Trucklite LED knock-offs a few people have been raving about.

Great build. It looks really good. 9 jeeps in 13 years is quite impressive. I thought I was bad but I've only had 7 cars since I was 16 and only 3 of which are jeeps.
Thank you!
I'm not sure I am impressed with my indecision to keep my vehicles long. LOL.
and that was with leaving out 4 VWs ( 3 Jetta GLIs and 1 GTI), and 4 motorcycles (Ninja 250, Bandit 1200, CBR900rr, and my current Rebel 250!)
So yea...this Jeep TJ I currently have is my 17th overall vehicle. and it is here to STAY!
Here is my front end. And you didn’t even buy me dinner first.Looks great! Picture of ZJ steering parts mounted?
Haha yes! All were used and most of my purchases were under $7500 besides my 2 JKUs I had. Basically just trading vehicles around and making a few bucks each time.
I hope they were used and you didn't take a bath.
Have you cycled your suspension? I see your not running any bump stops up front.Here is my front end. And you didn’t even buy me dinner first.

Does everything look OK? I wasn’t too sure about some of the angles, but I took it to an alignment shop and they said all is good.
Ps- this is a current pic as of today. That’s why you’ll see 35” tires here. I need to catch my build page up to this point still!
Thats good to hear. Lately I haven't been able to say the same. I bought a BRZ and then the wife got pregnant. Needless to say that car didn't last long but is probably the one I miss the most.Haha yes! All were used and most of my purchases were under $7500 besides my 2 JKUs I had.

I need to do that still... I have never done it before so I am a little intimidated, but I have been reading up on what to do for it. Soon!Have you cycled your suspension? I see your not running any bump stops up front.

I did it for the first time not to long ago.
