Well this beast was built over the last 20 years so I won’t have pick of all the installs but I’ll post picks of the goodies. I’ve never made a build thread before. It was rescently hit with some good hail so it’s getting a facelift and I got the bug again to mod it even further. Here’s the list of goodies
It currently has 122000 original miles but only 3k on engine tranny and transfer case as they were all rebuilt or replaced last winter due to a rod issue. So I figured if the engine was out why not.

I’ll have to change the settings on my pictures they seem to all be too big of files. Keep trying to upload them
 
Well it got an Atlas 4 speed earlier this year. 1:1, 2.72:1, 3.8:1, and 10.34:1 ranges now. I love this modification. Best thing yet. It also got a custom one of a kind shift knob, PSC hydro assist steering kit and PRP Enduro Elite seats, a new rear bumper and tire carrier, and is currently getting new custom roll over protection.

We put in a buddy’s Jeep a few weeks ago since it was still packing the 4:1 kit in good shape. If you are needing a stock 231 I’ve got one though.
Na. Just looking for a way to get 4:1 while keeping the size of the 231.
 
Seats look good. How do you like them compared to stock?
They are PRP enduro elites. I really like them a lot. I opted for the +4” height as I’m 6’5” tall. I also added the lumbar support and heat to the drivers side seat. They are much better than the original seats. I’ve had five back surgery’s now and they hold me in place laterally much better and take away a lot of the small jarring bumps completely. My back can stand a normal day of being in them a lot better than before. My only complaint is that the brackets used to mount them raise them about an inch. I have very little head room as is. But I’m currently in the process of building a new seat base and slider for the driver side to lower my seating position

Very cool. Thanks a lot for your detailed post.

My Jeep had only 60k miles but the driver's seat cushions could be firmer. I have been considering just getting new good quality cushions put in that one seat but the quotes I'm getting for that work are stupid high. You can as well spend a bit more and get a full seat lol, but then I'll have to he change both front ones and that gets very spendy of course, esp with the suspension stuff I've been thinking about.

Yes it does add up quickly. My wife bought me a seat last year for Christmas and I bought her one. We both love going out exploring in the mountains of our home in Colorado. That’s how we justified it. But they have really helped with my bad back. I didn’t hurt that a friend of mine is sponsored by PRP for his off road racing and I got the seats on a hefty discount with him ordering them.

Got the Smoked LED Jk turn signals put into the grill. I like the look. Now I need to get the new Genright mini boat side sliders mocked up so I can then tear it down for a new paint job.
