Ok so update of big proportions. Jeep ran great all summer while living at 9000ft in the mountains and running down to the valley at 5200ft or so.

Added a deer killer to the front, AFTER spending the summer driving in deer infested areas


Wheeled Moab and ran pritchett canyon which is one of the hardest trails there, extremely difficult but i only had to winch once. Definitely a tough trail tho and bypasses there are not easy by any means either. Ran it with 3 rigs the first attempt. One tj on 42 mtrs and built to the nuts, yota on 39 red labels and doublers, and another xj on 34's that ended up breaking a hub and ending our first attempt.






yota headed up crazy obstacle


it was an all or nothing run in my jeep, as i had no doubler for super low gearing, but i made it, my hands were shaking at the top tho, crazy obstacle indeed

Why do I live in CT?

And the jeep didnt break at all running hells revenge, pritchett canyon, gold bar rim and behind the rocks and i was super happy with it. but more could be done mwahahaha
I literally pulled into my house from moab and started doing this

all coming together, tied the shock hoops together and going to frame the tank with 1/2 square tube and then cover in sheet metal.

gained 6" of clearance as well

As you can also see i added a b pillar cage to protect me and stiffen up the body some too. I plan on adding a few more pieces of tube to the cage and im adding a seat in the back for a third passenger. A lot more work to do too,

everything is either 1.5 or 1.75 DOM .120 wall. next on the list is a tire carrier and antiwrap bar.
