89eliminator Posted October 12, 2008 Author Posted October 12, 2008 just curious did you have that sunroof put in and around how much was it to do its was already installed when i bought the truck. i would pm hornbrod cause he just had one installed not that long ago.
89eliminator Posted November 8, 2008 Author Posted November 8, 2008 well, I'm been gathering some parts for this winter's modifications. here is a list have: rubicon express brake lines bumptops for front rear bumper shackles need: tubing for longarms, will be going with a true 4-link design rod ends limiting straps front Aussie locker money :yes: shocks so pretty soon, it will be tear down time :thumbsup:
89eliminator Posted November 23, 2008 Author Posted November 23, 2008 well i finally got some time to work on my bumper. A local 4x4 shop made it, but i wanted to add my own touches to it. i plasma cut holes out for the d-ring mounts. nothing is welded in. they go all the way through and will be welded to the bumper mounts too. should be done fairly soon. hoping to get it painted tomorrow.
JeepcoMJ Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 :yes: :D :cheers: but I thought you weren't going to paint it until the next part of the project was done?
89eliminator Posted November 24, 2008 Author Posted November 24, 2008 :yes: :D :cheers: but I thought you weren't going to paint it until the next part of the project was done? i just couldnt wait :D plus now its not laying around making people trip :rotf:
Darren Posted November 24, 2008 Posted November 24, 2008 Looks good. I like the way it fits up close.
89eliminator Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 well i got my 1in lift shackles on this morning before i stuffed my face with food and i love my rear bumper even more now that i've seen it outside
Darren Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 Damn that is a clean truck. You even have a matching wheel for your spare.
89eliminator Posted November 28, 2008 Author Posted November 28, 2008 Damn that is a clean truck. You even have a matching wheel for your spare. heck yeah :thumbsup:
89eliminator Posted November 30, 2008 Author Posted November 30, 2008 well i hated how the tailpipe hung below the bumper so out came the sawzall.
rjontzen Posted November 30, 2008 Posted November 30, 2008 looks really good....now will you be testing that going thru the tubes??....and don't forget the license plate lite as i was just reminded yesterday by the local :mad:
89eliminator Posted November 30, 2008 Author Posted November 30, 2008 yeah i'll be testing it, but i don't think it will hit anymore :clapping: and yes, i gotta think about the light.
500 MJ Posted December 7, 2008 Posted December 7, 2008 Bumper pics look good. I like the attention to detail here! I would never have enough patience to cut and fill that section on the end. I'd like to hear your thoughts (after you have used it for awhile) on the receiver hitch. The way I do mine sets it flush to the back and you have to reach under the bumper to put the pin into the hole for the hitch... I didn't like the thought of leaving the hitch out there all by itself to get banged up or hit your knees against it... it also does hinder departure angles a bit... lol - Take Care - Brent
89eliminator Posted December 7, 2008 Author Posted December 7, 2008 i was gonna mount it flush too. But the way i was it was that the only time i ever dragged my class 3 hitch was on a moderate to steep climb. I don't think i will ever drag it (unless I'm close to straight up and down :yes: )
MiNi Beast Posted December 8, 2008 Posted December 8, 2008 Lift that rear end up and you shouldn't ever drag it :nuts:
Drahcir495 Posted January 7, 2009 Posted January 7, 2009 well i hated how the tailpipe hung below the bumper so out came the sawzall. Still in my top 3 MJ's of all time :bowdown: . Enough sucking up - I am thinking about doing the same thing, but I am worried about the exhaust fumes getting in through the slider window - or inside the topper with my pups. Have you experienced any issues with the fumes getting in? I ask because it happens in the CJ/YJ's when they dump straight out the back. Thanks, Rich
