You know good and well that you don't sleep at night....you lay in bed thinking about it.....wanting to get up and go out to the garage....look at it one more time before you turn out the light.....maybe sneak a look before you go to work.....coffee in hand.....

Looks like its going to be really nice...I know you're excited....What color is the body going to be?

Your post count must be higher to post image code. Looks like you're off to a good start on your CJ. The last pic looks like you really really like that motor.

Thanks...I plan on painting the body Olive Drab, that is when i get a body. The one i started with was rotted out. So taking my time trying to find a nice used body.

Yes the frame is a Throttle Down Customs...AWESOME Frame!! painted it w/ POR15

What shocks do you guys recommend for daily driver and weekend wheeler? I was thinking of Bilstein 5150's

ts: I'm just curious... If you went to the expense for a TDK frame (nice choice by the way), why not go with their "hybrid" frame so you could go with a coil suspension in lieu of leaf springs?

And is that your dad helpin' out? I think with him there you'll learn a lot. I wouldn't consider you guys team newbie with that rotisserie and frame choice.
