Quick question. What exhaust are you running? Do you have a stroker or engine swap in that thing? I forget and I am on my laptop without a mouse so flippin through the pages is tough haha

They all covered it pretty much... not a damn clue:

Still a stock motor iirc.

Yeah... I figured that's what everyone does... I was right for the most part. If I lose I'm not entering again until I can call my Jeep done.... winch/cage/shave the diffs/full hydro/ORI struts up front and tear it open at Harlan.
Those I think are my long term goals... Jeep work will come to a halt until we're settled in Ohio, and probably time after that too... need a compressor and build some workbenches and a shop once I get my own garage.

Its a really well put together Jeep. Its my favorite "built" Jeep aside from my own. The rear shock angle is the only thing that strikes me as something that needs addressed and the d44. IMO it appears more time and thought and money went into Eugene... while I was a little bummed at first that mine isn't going to win, I can definitely not feel bad "losing" to him... its pretty sweet looking. I made a lot of stupid compromises in my build... I need my own garage to do a "rebuild" before I'm happy with mine.
Edit: you guys should not rag on him... you may be DQed from tjotm in the future... and clearly a lot of work went into.

I have been following this build I thought since day 1`. Not till I was looking at TJOTM I noticed you forward outboarded the rear shocks. I am doing the same on my Build. Do you like it? Does it work for your suspension.
