lower jeep Posted November 24, 2006 Author Share Posted November 24, 2006 the cover fit ok, its very close to the cab but opens and does not really rub on it here's some pics the cover overlaps some it the front and is a little bit to small but it seals fine the plasitic parts in the interior and the dash i sanded down and painted it all white i painted the truck myself in late july of this year i wanted to build the truck to be a low rider but not enough money to do what i wanted to do so i decided that i am going to lift the truck and make it a baja style truck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beaterjeep Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 its just to hard to lower these thing with out alot of money or time That is true, I think I sat down one day and added everything up when I was thinking of doing almost the same thing to my '88, and I came up with an estimate of around $50,000 for my ideas. Still think your's looks BA the way it is, so just a question, why not leave it as it is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lower jeep Posted August 14, 2007 Author Share Posted August 14, 2007 going to put in a set of 93 caddy taillight in to the bed and shaving the original taillight (any body need taillights) might shave the tail gate handle but not the tail gate and getting rid of JEEP like the last one (pain in the @$$) going to notch the frame 2" in the back to get clearance for the axle (didnt like playing tag with the frame) with the 4" blocks that i had in it got a 93 grand cherokee front bumper to put on the truck, had to cut out 5" from the center to get it to fit( not the center but on the out side after the fog light holes) and then i have to cut the fenders to mount the sides of the bumper. :eek: soon ging to order air ride for the back of the truck toget it to sit on the ground like 2wd mini trucks should Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
