So heres the story. Before my Jeep I went through a couple trucks. The last one was a Z71 which i had lifted and what not. Anyways i got tired of it so it went up for sale. Long story short I ended up with the "bo shadow" as it's known by my group of friends. For months I promised myself nothing would be done to it. But then I ran across Jeepforum.com. And from then on it has cost me over $5000 to date with alot more to come.

Only stocker picture i have



The first thing I did was tint the windows. 20% in the front and 5% in the back.
Next I decided I was going to monogram Jeep into the leather headrests.


For my birthday my girlfriend bought me HID's. She got me purple because we though they looked cool but really turned out to be pinkish


Tow hooks came next. Instead of going with stock from a jukyard I went with Rustys tow hooks.
(front bumper removed for install)


A short while passed before i did anything else because I was trying to save money for a lift. In june I finally got around to installing it. For me this was one of the happiest events I have had in a while. I installed the RCX kit myself which is what made it 100x's better. Something many 18 year olds couldnt dream of doing. These are some pics of it after Firestone Destination m/t's went on.



So much more to come. Here's a list of future plans:
(This will be updated as item is installed)
Front Bumper
Rear Tire Carrier
Long Arms
Rear LA'sExhaust
Wheels
Winch
truss rear d44
Tank tuck



Here's how it sits today.

well i plan on going bigger eventually and i can get 8.8's for next to nothing. This is way way down the road though.

[Apollo21]

it would be easier and probably just as strong to truss your D44a

Took some more pictures today just playing around in the backyard.

You are correct sir, i am 19 and dream of 6in clayton longarms on my wj. Gotta dream big.

nice jeep man.. I got my jeep (still paying thru financing) when I was 19 also. I installed the lift right when I turned 20... I like the sliders, but I'm in love with IRO's... It is difficult to have such a nice jeep but not be able to get it to where you want... believe me I dream of 6" F and R clayton LA's, locked D44's and 33x12.5's but gotta have priorities... I'm graduating from UO this year, maybe I'll land a legit job

Took the dog to the pond today to play around. He loves his rides in the Jeep.
I tried getting more pics but the camera died. This is the only one I got of him with the phone before we left.

He's dry. I care way too much about my interior to put him in there wet. I dryed him off before we came home too.

[WillMcD]

So i ordered a hella 700ff kit today and a smittybuilt 54" jack. I plan to put the hellas on the front bumper and the jack on the roof rack.

Tinted my headlights using vht nightshade. Since my windows are tinted it makes it hard enough to see out the back so i left the backup light untinted. I think it looks better like that way anyways.

[PCJona]

you need to debadge bro

and i have a can of that stuff too, you just sprayed it on? or did you prep it and stuff

[WillMcD]

idk if i wanna debadge or not.

clean it really well and just spray on.
