Sounds great, that will allow me to get all of the suspension finished welded. I have just been bustin your balls a little, I know you guys are just a distributor for them, so no worries, I have referred at least a half a dozen people to you guys for XJ stuff while I have been waiting for these parts to come in so definately no hard feelings. I am pretty patient.

oh ya they aren't bad they are only like 5% alcohol, but they add a little extra jd flavor so it tastes stronger than it is. but also a good quality construction.

Sounds good man, just shoot me a text.

Just got internet back today from the hurricane. I'll update tonight but I have not gotten a lot of work done on the jeep

3" Profender Air Bumps from LII



I was working on welding out a bunch of tube and the rear 4 link brackets and whatnot before I lost power during the hurricane... and much to my dismay, the my generator doesn't really put out enough to power the garage






Put the links back in and bolted the tires on, now I can start setting up my shock mounts and bump mounts in the back.


I started getting really frustrated with the front tube work, trying to mess around with dinky shock hoops and leaving limited space for the bumps. It just wasn't ideal. So I cut all my tacks and decided to try something else...


The grill is now narrowed 5 inches but will still hide the radiator. I am not planning on running headlights in the grill.

I used a piece of Tig wire to kind of simulate where the shock will attach to the hoops, I have to cut off and replace the axle shock mounts becuase I screwed up the spacing but when I weld the new ones on I might angle them toward the back of the jeep a little.



Not sure if I like it yet but it works a hell of a lot better, I am going to mount the grill and winch and see how it looks with a piece of tube across to surrount the grill.

More from this weekend

Mounted radiator




Put some flat stock in to mount the winch


Little more tube



Blew up my flex head TIG torch, gotta order a new one, I have the rigid one on now, don't really like it.
