Final Wheelbase turned out to 110"
The custom flat belly I built was out of 6061 aluminum and fully recessed allen bolts (3/8" thick main piece) (1/4" thick over oil pan and tranny).
All the work from start to finish turned out to be a full year and a half long project for me. (a one man crew with a lot going on) (got lazy with progress pictures although I have a lot that i didn't post on here but I did on my Instagram: @jkyotacon)
The jeep does ok on the road but not gonna be breaking any 65+mph speed limits
The 4.3:1 Atlas 4 speed is awesome recommend to anyone with a 6 speed trans
Jeep sits very low with about 3.5-4" up travel in the front and about 5.5-6" in the rear
No big surprise here but ended up spending more on the jeep than i had thought/planned. Still less than a brand new stock rubicon.
Only regret so far is not getting sticky tires (red label Krawlers or 43 tsl sx's) but going to fix that soon.
