i decided to use the stock tow hooks, rather then the just bolts. at some point i'll buy or make a set of those bolt on d-ring shackles.




i also took a slide hammer to the cowel dent, a few taps with the hammer n dolly and she should be ready for paint. that was easy.

 

Wow she's coming along. Glad to see you're bringing her back from the dead.

 

man great progress!

 

Was wondering if you would ever make it over here with your build. Looks like it's coming along nicely.

 

You should put "FRANKENJEEP" on the hood....

 

cross your fingers for me, i think i have more parts coming soon. a pair of 3.73 axles lines up for a good trade, that little better gearing should make 35's on the highway nice with the 6spd. also waiting to hear back on a hood, battery tray, and lower links.

i'm stoked

this also means i need to get off my a$$ and order the lift kit tonight or tomorrow so that it will be here with everything else.

 

i also think my status needs to be changed as i'm obviously not a newb any more ... that drives me nutz

 

post more....then you won't be a newb. 4.10's woulda been better.

 

Keep cooresponding with all the people in this thread and you will be out of the newbie status in no time. Everyone loves the work, and wants to hear every detail.

 

yeah, but then i just get the next general new status ...

yes, 4.10s would be better and i think i might take 4.56's to really do it up ... but unless someone wants to offer me a set of 4.10 axles within my price range, we'll wait a while.
