Are you still planning on driving 75 down the highway? Do you think it will be decently comfortable? Where you located? Also I've always somewhat wondered, what is the margin of error in something like this in regards to measurements being off impacting the drivability? Build is coming along great!
Yes sir. Still plan on being able to cruise 70 down the highway and yes shouldn't be bad because I still have a windshield, firewall, and most of the floor. Im not to sure how to answer the next question... I am trying my hardest to make every square and symmetrical. The jeep will get a full alignment on an alignment rack so should go down the rode straight.
Are you planning to do some body panels to the rear or leave it open? Also, what backspacing on the wheels? Do you have an overall width measurement? It's looking super wide which I like.
I will probably make some aluminum panels eventually (definitely not in a hurry) and the wheels are 3.5" backspacing (9" wide if i recall). I do not have an overall width measurement but can take one if you want.

The alignment part won't be bad. I was surprised how good mine was for doing it in my garage. The shock tuning will be a big part for the ride part.
For anyone that was waiting to see this thing done and working here it is: stopped taking the time to post on forums and such... But happy with how she turned out and gonna keep beating on it and refining it (Such as the coolant tank) (I will have that relocated and under the hood)
