project: millenium falcon... I was expecting you to say that you actually got your Jeep to 88mph. haha

Lookin good. You have a nice clean starting point there, I'm sure there's many YJ owners that have started with worse (I was almost as lucky as you).

Btw. How do you like that CB? I was looking at that same model, but I was afraid it would be overkill for as little as I'll use one.
