The old build thread from the old forums: Here
To be updated later today..
March 2004, when i bought it. the jeep started life as a stocker as does any other jeep
got tired of being "stock" so i put 30" ATs on there in june of that year...lol.
then, it was time for my first lift. a rustys 3" AAL in jan 05 to see if i liked this whole wheelin thing.
then i bought some 31" ATs for the lift, with new rims off a YJ sometime in feb 05
then i took it to paragon for its first real wheeling foray in june 05
then it was time to step it up. july/august 05 brought an RE 4.5" superflex kit
my 31s were way too small and yes i knew this, so i ordered 33x10.5s
added a bunch of stuff over the course of 06, including a 4.56 regear, dana 44 swap, and locker
then came march 07 and i put in a big order
which resulted in this
So then 07 came and went, 08 came and went, the jeep stayed relatively the same throughout with some small changes. spent most my time just fixing shit. and wheeling all the time.
Added a WJ crossover steering conversion using WJ knuckles/brakes/custom linkage
The rest is caught up in the build thread
