Well, I'm buying a daily driver so I decided to make a build thread as things get more interesting in the future. I'll start this thread from around late spring 2012 and just give a brief picture based overview.
So I had these Waggy 44's with a tnt truss laying around.
And my jeep looked like this.
Then I bought these long arms.
Put them on.
Got some frame stiffeners.
Did some work on my bumper and it looked like this.
Pulled the rear, then the front.
Welded on front stiffeners.
Threw on a waggy pitman arm.
Rolled the front axle under.
Lined it up and stuff.
Started to weld in my drivers side slider.
Started getting the rear together with U-bolt eliminator Kit.
Did that and put in a hack-n-tap sye and new drive shaft.
Started to get everything else assembled.
Tires mounted and balanced on some orange rims.
I reused my old 1 ton steering, had to cut it down. Sleeves are smaller then I would have liked.
Then I had to go to school and Its sitting in the driveway looking like this.
It drives down the street and stops almost, It needs a bigger master cylinder. It also needs the rear shocks to go through the floor cause they are way to big for the stock body side mount. The sliders need to be finished welded and some tie-ins made to the frame. It also needs bigger tires for sure and lockers. The future will hopefully bring a cage or something and I've always loved chop tops and stuff.
