I still need to button up a few issues with the jeep, like the crazy bump steer, but it is home and running great otherwise. Had some issues with the guys that did my rear locker and gears but got it squared away and the rear Detroit and front Aussie lockers work great together. I'll have some action pics by this weekend.

Thanks. It is amazing all the looks and head turns I get in it now.

I flipped the drag link from bottom to top, and got a pitman arm that has no drop to it and the bump steer is all gone. Drives great now. I need to re-center my wheel though, shorten the wheelbase by an inch or so on the rear arms to stop the rear bumper tire rub, and find a nutzert tool to finish my flat belly skid.

Thanks guys.

I also began to address the unibody that sticks out past the ends of my bumper. I chopped the driver side off completely, and the passenger side is started, but I ran out of daylight and the jeep doesn't fit in my garage anymore.

I think it turned out great so far and I'll post some pics tomorrow.

Here is the front of the unibody all chopped off. Turned out great I think.

I never heard it rub, or felt it get in the way but after the first wheeling trip, one side's lip that hung out was bent over and then on the second trip a guy took a pic of the driver side stuffed, and it appeared to be hitting even though I never felt or heard it.

Amazing build. By far one of my favorite jeeps off the forum. Makes me want to get a liberty and build it, BAD.
Keep up the good work dude, i'll be checkin this thread often

Side note, how do you like the kevlars? Used them anything other than rock and dirt?

Where did you buy your tires? I'm thinking about getting those when I move up to 35's.

Thanks.
I love the tires, everything about them. I've had them in a little mud, rain soaked roads and the dirt and rocks like you mentioned. They are great on all of them.

I got mine from my local jeep dealer dealer actually. They got them from tirerack.com and beat tirerack's prices by a couple bucks. Tirerack has the best prices that I have seen otherwise though.
