I have the honor of having my Jeep being used as a feature vehicle for Dynomax in this years SEMA show. So in order for that to happen we needed to freshen her up a bit. I will be posting updated pictures as we near the show of the progress.

Right now the Plans are :

Dynomax Cat Back
Artec Hi steer arms
Artec Quart Crates filled with Royal Purple
OCX Speaker cans and components with 4 ch Amp
Reid Racing Dana 60 Knuckles
Raceline Beadlock Wheels
Line-X interior
Trek Armor Seat covers
Rugged Ridge Hood
Rugged Ridge Cowl Covers
Rugged Ridge Hood Latches
Genesis Off Road G Screen
Rancho Tube doors

Prepping the tub for Line X. This was the worst part of the job but with some good beer it wasnt that bad.




Installed a sweet custom seat to load her up on the trailer.




Al ready to go!





The tub came out great! Empire Line-X did a great job!







PSC corners Line Xed

Then it was time to go snag the wheels. Off to Raceline we went. Id love to have a few minutes alone in this warehouse HAHA



Tried to be economical and well 5 wheels just barely fit in the mustang hahaha





Shane at Genesis sent me the G screen and we did an install video and the mic wasn't working so Ill remove it and re-shoot it so you guys can see the greatness that is the G-Screen.

Well after doing some measuring I was going to have a huge challenge of making all my steering work with the Artec arms and factory ford knuckles. The Ford OEM knuckles mount the tie rod higher than the chevrolet ones. So to solve this issue We decided to go with Reid Racing Ford HD knuckles. The Ford versions are based on the stronger Chevy casting but they use the lower Chevy style steering arm. This should put us right where we need to keep the geometry we have now and allow us to double shear the entire steering linkage. Another great thing is that the Reids have a 5th threaded hole to help beef up the Hi steer arm mounting strength.

Awesome build can't wait to check it out! Love the Artec arms on mine and I'd like to follow your path with the Reid Knuckles!

the color scheme on those racelines are siiiick! See what you did? Now I have to go paint mine exactly like that! Looking forward to seeing the complete build also!

Brown Santa brought some more parts. Time to get busy.



If you like actually hearing your music while your driving on the freeway with the top off Crawl tunes is where you need to look.



The new rugged ridge hood made it as well along with their Billet hood latches.

I like everything you did, except for the fact you are still running those P.O.S. bouncy rubber stock hood catches!

They are getting changed. But 4 years with my AEV hood and stock catches and no issues or flutter .
