Went Old School
I spent the last week and went old school style, and wet sanded all suspension parts as well as all the pinch seems on both sides and the back, I than removed all the Krawl Works stickers. After that I masked the Jeep and repainted everything Flat Black and Semi Gloss Black and repainted the Poison Spyder Diff plates mango Tango, along with the PSC piston. Jeep looks brand new again, and this was the last project for this year, and now it's time to enjoy Sarge.

What was done
A couple more pictures of the re-refurbed underneath the Jeep. I also took the 50 cent band straps off the shocks and reservoirs and installed the billet Fox Shock clamps. What a difference it made, they are definitely a more solid and look so much better. Used lock-tight for extra added protection.

Paint
I used Mopar spray paint for the Mango Tango and Rustolium flat black and semi gloss sray for the suspension and diff, and brush for touch ups. i used Eastwoods exhaust ceramic paint flat black for the exhaust. I think it came out pretty awesome.

Aside from installing LED headlights, THIS has been the best bang for the buck install that I have done to date!
Dynatrac Pro Grip's installed. Finally. OMG what a difference!

Rear stock vs Dynatrac
So easy a caveman (with awesome tools) can do in an afternoon. If you're riding lifted with anything over 33" rubber, these are a no-brainer. Just have a heavy duty aftermarket rear bumper because rear endings may ensue. No really.
