So another small update. I picked up a 93 ZJ with a rebuilt engine and tranny. Has 33" BFG Mud terrains and a 4.5 RE kit. It also has a 242 with a SYE. Plan is to swap over my axles, front arms, tires, cb, and I believe that is it. After that is done I will sell my I6. I'll get pics in a bit. Not to bad for a 93 could use some new door panels and windshield but other than that it's pretty nice (well at least for me)

I will be picking up and hopefully installing my tube doors this afternoon after a little disconnect between my friend and I. I also ordered a TJ gas bezel and a locking gas cap. Sorry Moony and goofy I wont be swapping the motors. My 97 is sexy but I have plans for the 93. Short term plans are a military themed style. Gonna pick up some OD green bed liner to put on it and also some white serial numbers on the sides of the hood/front quarter panels. Not too far in the future maybe within a year I will finally have the cage and bumpers I have been wanted but something always comes up. After that will be axles, beadlocks and larger tires. By time all of that happens I should have a tow rig and a trailer.

Nothing too special happening lately. Received a new cross member from IRO to go with the 93, did the TJ gas bezel and locking gas cap, and ordered new one ton steering http://www.seriousoffroadproducts.co...ducts_id=77765 Hoping to have everything swapped to the 93 shortly.

Well an update on my Jeep's. The "new" 93 is toast. Someone (i.e. old lady) pulled out in front of my fiancee, causing her to t-bone her. Luckily no one was hurt but the Jeep was a loss. Could of bought it back but with us saving for a wedding we decided to let the insurance company total it and keep the money for the wedding. Here are a few pics. I also picked up a set of rear tube doors that match the fronts I have. On the plus side next summer some time there is a plan to swap a 5.2 or 5.9 (if I can find one) in place of my I6. So the "sexy" black one is staying and will be getting some love. Picking up a waggy steering box to upgrade my weakening and leaking stock one, a new radiator, SYE, some HID off road lights in place of my headlights, and a KOR light bar with off road lights. Will also need to fix my leaking sun roof almost forgot. Now for the pics:

Well got my rear Clayton's welded up yesterday, dropped in a Durango steering box, picked up an new oem radiator, and got a steal of a deal on a KOR rad support. Finally wiring up my KOR light bar sometime this week too. Found out my custom sliders don't work with my Clayton's gonna see if there is a way I can mod them and get them to work if not sliders will be going up for sale.

Or you could ship the sliders to a fellow Steelers fan (me) for the price of shipping and build a new set.

Haven't been real active on the forum in a while. Not much new is going on, well with the Jeep that is. I still haven't made the necessary mods for the IRO belly skid to work with the Clayton frame stiffeners but should be soon. Tried to stretch the legs for the last two weekends but little **** keeps popping up preventing me from wheeling. I can't wait to get back on the trails! I will say though that having front and rear long arm are the best thing since sliced bread! Such a smooth ride!

Free!!!!!! I entered a contest/raffle and won. I called Ramsey because the shipping was delayed and they said it is because of a switch in wireless remote suppliers. They said they are going to ship the winch and wireless remote in separate shipments due to a delay in production. So I'm waiting on the wireless but without being able to mount it I really don't care. Who wants to buy me a Protofab Pre-Runner bumper with stinger!?
