Whats up guys.. I had many things going on those last couple of weeks thought I should share some of the pics with everyone

so Mango Tango got a OME 2.5" lift and 37" MTRK flares EVO bumper and 5:13s

here are some pics of it










while we were at it. I added HD balljoints for my big JK. the old balljoints were pretty much shot!





looks like I have some clearance issues in the rear




After all this we went to NY to pickup my new to me LJ and drove it 2000+ miles home not really the best drive but was fun till we past chicago IL then the road was not interesting what so ever! really boring.

Here is the LJ











and we were fueled by those guys





we stopped at a motel and got 4 hours of sleep and then we took off heading to the Jeep factory



this is where the GPS took us



after talking to the security guards at the facility we where back on track



and WE MADE IT





gotta represent



here we are half way in our trip. I decided to get the marker out and be creative. some entertainment for our fellow travelers lol



I took the miles off of google maps. which is BS!! I had closer to 2200 miles on the gauge when I reached denver



we made it home and a week later we decided to take a photo shoot







Mango on 37s driving is member (Shark-JK)



I don't know who this poser is



Bro (Wa2eL)






continued

 

Last week me and Shark-JK decided to take the Mango out and test it out and see how it will do offroad.

here we are at my favorite spot for photography. this takes you straight to Dakan rd.



























then it started getting dark so it was time to leave



and here are some pics of my JK vs my LJ
in this pic you can see that I added a softtop, half doors, clear marker and signal lights also got rid of the chrome around the headlights













thats what you see from the drivers seat




Plans for the LJ are

2.5" lift 1" body
37" tires
AEV highline kit
Mopar front bumper
i'm thinking about installing JK axles under it
Kelby Highline rockers
and painting it flat gray. the hardtop is getting painted black on the out side and two tone on the inside should be cool

Big JK goes to ORE sometime soon for control arms and a full floater in the rear

That's all

thanks and sorry about this long post
