Edlebrock Remote resi front shocks are on their way and AJS front bumper is being built.

I have a few other projects to work on before spring/summer. Hopefully i can get someone local to help me install my wj front steering/brakes soon and my unibody stiffeners.

Just a little update today for you audio folk.

Normally when you put an aftermarket cd deck in you need a plastic adapter to fit and finish the look. Well we have machinists at my work so i figured why not. I gave him a plastic adapter and said have fun. Today i came home with that cd deck adapter duplicated out of 6061 polished aluminum. Its super strong so its semi theft deterrent and it looks pretty bad ass. I am leaving it blinging for now but i am thinking of having it anodized in dark green by the shop that does the anodizing for my work if its not too much for this tiny little part. I will take pics later.

I got pics of the billit cd adapter and got my tool box 99% done. Still need to carpet and install the box tomorrow, its got one big drawer, small compartment and sub enclosure. My dad and i built it at his wood shop. Came out sick.

Thanks, I am goona cover it in gray carpet today i hope, and get it installed.

Next week my New edlebrock front shocks get installed and i gotta put my stock front tow hooks back on as its gonna be a while before Ajs gets my front bumper done.

If all goes well my frame stiffeners go in next weekend.
