Finished the mockup. May go back and make my arms a little longer and push back the frame side bracket.

Here are some more progress photos. Looking at 5.5” of up travel from here. Let me know what y’all think! Looking at 14” coil overs and some bump stops. I think I may need to cut the tub to fit my towers.

Here is some more progress. Shooting for the suspension to be done by next week.

Do you have a build thread for it? I'd love to check it out.

Are you running a R2.8?

You are right about the R2.8. I did consider this engine quite a bit. Maybe I’ll look back into it. Do you know if they have made any updates or revisions to them? Or any new modifications available? And I know how you feel. I lived in a small apartment till a few months ago. It’s rough with no...

I actually was going to do a 4bt swap but I didn’t because of the legal issues I could possibly run into.... especially in other states that we will drive too. The r2.8 is to new for me. I have heard people try to turn them up or play with them and they blow up. I also want to have readily...

Thanks man. Still waiting on parts. I will post another video on some progress I've made this week. Trying o get it driving in the next month or two so we can go to Moab. We will see.

I am pretty glad I waited till Black Friday to get everything. Saved a TON of money in the end. I am still waiting for some parts to come in and my welder that I ordered back in August. Don't know why that's taking so long but here is some thoughts and progress on the build!! Any ideas for...

Finally Building some momentum! Here is the latest video for y'all. Disassembled the axles and just need to finish the brackets. Let me know what y'all think!

Started a channel so I can share all my progress. Here is a little intro video. Hoping to start logging every part of this project. Also, found more photos of my jeep setup from when I first got it. I will attach them here. Trying to keep tearing down these axles!

I quit running flares after I ripped my plastic ones off. Now I am fabricating up some metal ones.

Started to line everything up with some stock wheels I picked up for FREE from a neighbor. (Good neighbors are just the best.) I am trying to figure out if I should keep them full width or cut them down to 65" WMS? Let me know what y'all think. I know coverage laws in certain states may be a...

The rack measures around 58" x 69". Its pretty much flush with the front window and the turn down of the hard top. Thank you sir. Getting married Saturday so hopefully I can start progressing more on the build next week.

Haha yes, I do have a plan for fender flares. I was going to bend some out of the leftover tubing from my roof rack. I didn’t consider the fact of kids sticking their head out of the window.
