I like it!

 

Thanks ...Gotta love the summer weather here.....

 

I took the rear section of the top off for the first time since I've owned it.
Installed the high-lift jack brackets I got from jeepswag.

Then it rained, and I no-one around to help me throw the roof back on

 

I line x'd my entire tub and rollcage, and my door jams and sills

 

Roll cage & sills too? Love to see some pics of that, never considered going that far and I bet it looks killer. Please share pics!

 

I got mine dirty:



Oh and I finished off the side nets.

 

I will post some pics in about a week. I move next weekend. I have underground parking where I am now which is not well lit for pictures and is limiting my ability to modify my Jeep.... Lol

 

I removed the silver bumper insets front and back, plasti-dipped my trail rated badge, both door and tailgate lock, front Jeep emblem and front fender marker lights. Forgot to dip the antenna, get that next weekend.

Before







After




Still trying to decide if I want to dip my grill or just my turn signal lenses.

Almost done with the cheapo mods... Finally figured out my lift and my wheels, just trying to decide on 35's or 37's.

 

She gotta a bath

 

Today I decided to do a little work on my JK, I removed the factory tailgate hinges and painted in behind on the tailgate because that is a spot where the factory does not paint and that's how rust starts in behind all the hinges...you would figure that Chrysler would paint every panel then adding the hinges but no...every thing is put on the it's painted complete!

Here is a pic of the factory hinges & 1 of them with the back thats against the panel...no paint & rust started to form...



I taped the panel off and painted with Rustoleum when there was no paint...you can see on the bottom hinge where Chrysler neglets to paint behind the hinge...



Both area cleaned & painted...



Painted dried up after 1 hour & I installed the new Stainless Steel Tailgate Hinges & also Plsti-Dipped the Bolts for the Contrast...



I also did the Mopar Gas Cover Bolts & Jeep Logo on the Cap in Plasti-Dip...just waiting for it to dry & clean it up...
