there is some thick brush that i have run into but i have wheeled this long without something like that so i guess i don't really need it. two light bars is an idea i had (each side of the center roof tube) but they are just so much money that its not worth it to me.

i run the same shock mounts. they work good. and i reused the factory spring plates.

looks like it has been repaired once already

yeah i missed the part where you changed control arm brackets. re check the caster and toe. also your trackbar is on upside down, not like that would make a difference though. are your wheel bearings new?

i hadnt considered that. something to look into though.

have you looked for a crack in the unibody?? it is always a possiblity its cracked. whether its the main contributor to your DW is up for question.

I'm not sure i follow your first statement. and is conservative good or bad? lol

best i could get for an "aerial" photo lol hard to see but i tied into the door hinges. bottom is welded to the rock rails the top tubes are higher than i visually wanted but i had the tough decision of going tight to the cab or leaving enough room to sort of maintain the usability of the sun roof. since i hate hate HATE hot weather, i chose the later. rear view. after it was welded in i realized i probably should have continued the triangulation down to the mounts...

yea yea yea lol. will get more pics up later.

Als in franklin always has 4.0s on hand. we will have to meet up sometime. where in milwaukee are you?

cage is done. gotta add spare tire mount and hi lift mount yet.

ditto. if the price wasnt so steep i would consider buying it just to have it.

in my eyes, you just got the best MJ on this site.

one of my favorites on the site. well deserved.

cage in progress

it is doubtful, but i will let you know if we make it to SMORR this year again

did you ever go to SMORR?

where is it going? be curious to hear what you got for it, but don't expect you to tell me lol. hopefully the new owner takes as good of care of it as you did.

looks good. why do all that work to a low pinion axle though?

this is the exact moment i re arranged my bed side side note, got this bad boy setup today...

Are you planning on going with the same style cage we built? Willy maybe not exactly the same, but probably similar. i will be tying mine into the rock rails. Nice! I look forward to seeing what you do. Willy me too haha. this will be my first attempt at bending up a cage. been reading a lot about tips on bending tube.

its a nice truck for sure. if someone is willing to pay that much, then thats how much the truck is worth. some people don't have the capabilities to build a truck like that so i can see where someone would want to buy it already built. i sure as hell wish i could sell my truck for that much....

thank you. i bought 80'. based off my extremely rough measurements, i needed 71'. i know i will need to do a few test bends.

yes i still cracked my stock spacer even with a cross brace and bumper that ties into the mounts. i bought the JCR spacer plate.
