  • The WK build... well sorta

    So as most know the Lift the WK option is not in my near future. So i figure i will do as much as i can to keep it capable for country roads and heavy winters and still comfy on street. Bought in april 2009 with 60k miles and it now has over 110k miles on it.

    For starters 2005 Wk limited 4.7 V8

    Custom side exit exhaust, Does not help for anything just sounds bad ass.



    Done-
    I did Bilstein Struts but still need rear Bilstein shocks
    Husky Liners Front floor mats and rear cargo mat. still need 2nd row.
    Changed diff fluids with Mobil 1. All oil changes with Mobil 1 as well.
    Installed my Electric Brake controller as i have some towing to do.

    New Brakes all around R1 Concepts DrilleSlotted rotors with Ceramic pads.


    Installed towing helper air bags. Firestone Ride rite, no saggy ass when towing.


    08 Overland front end conversion after fender bender


    Custom made True Cold air CAI. Made using stock intake and K&N Plenum
    Pre paint (was painted charcoal gray and filled the texture) now gloss black for the moment.


    Added stock front tow hooks
    Oem steel engine skid to replace plastic unit.
    Mag Light mount


    Hoping for some 265/65/17 Nitto Crosstek tires and one day AEV Pintler wheels. I already have one of the new tires i need at least 3 more but id like 4 so i have a matching spare and i cant mix sizes with my jeep cause it will fuck up the AWD if i do. the one i have now is barely used and has a plug so it would make a great full size matching spare.

    Clearance is tight but still clears everything.






    Currently running Staggered Bridgestone Blizzak LM-25 4x4 snow tires, 235/65/17 front 255/60/17 rear. (got them free off a cadillac srx suv and i needed tires so snows year round it is. )

    I had 265/65/17 Peerless Widetrack Baja ATIIs before.

            Yea, i know, its all i had, I had a different cold air intake from AFE that i sold and i dont have a stock filter just the K&N.

            Eventually i will use an Amsoil Air filter.

                              K&N blocks 99.6% of particles turbos should get 99.8% clean air
