Little jeep Posted March 29, 2015 Author Posted March 29, 2015 I thought it was cool man! I saw it awhile back! Looking awesome !! Thanks man!
Little jeep Posted April 7, 2015 Author Posted April 7, 2015 Me and Dan got the rear 4 link mocked up today and started on the front
Little jeep Posted April 9, 2015 Author Posted April 9, 2015 WOW do you get nose bleeds getting into the cab?? Na, no nose bleeds in the cab. Haven't stood on the roof yet though...
88whitemanche Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 As far I've been a Florida native and been offroading.... I seen Florida mud/swamps swallow trucks this high with ease... Looking good though...maybe I'll see it one day at an event

Looking good though...maybe I'll see it one day at an event So your saying there's mud that will swallow this thing up? What a crazy concept I had no idea there was mud that deep anywhere. I thought I could drive this thing to Europe
Little jeep Posted April 20, 2015 Author Posted April 20, 2015 Motor was dropped in this weekend. Job was too easy thanks to rims that allowed the truck to fit in the garage, the removable front clip, the chain hoist, and of course d2b4ker1s help  Coilovers were ordered from FOA last week. 16" of travel. 40.5" overall when extended. 2.5" shock and 3" springs. Can't wait until they come in
JeepsOLot Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 WOW do you get nose bleeds getting into the cab?? Hell, how do you get TO the cab!? Sweet build! Â Jerry
Incommando Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 So what do you intend to use this for in the end?
shelbyluvv Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 So what do you intend to use this for in the end?   it will be used in mud and rock crawling    Â
Little jeep Posted April 23, 2015 Author Posted April 23, 2015  WOW do you get nose bleeds getting into the cab??Hell, how do you get TO the cab!? Sweet build! Jerry Running boards will be fabbed that run from wheel well to wheel well. And I'll have to climb up the tire to get up on to them. We tossed around ideas about ladders but couldn't come up with a clean enough look for what I like. I don't want anything gaudy LOL. from the tires up I want the clean look no big bumpers or big lights. The only exception will be the air filter sticking through the hood. Which I'm sure I'll hear plenty of opinions about because I'm not going to snorkel it or run the intake in the cab. But it will be 6' above the ground and I don't plan on going in anything quite that deep
Little jeep Posted April 27, 2015 Author Posted April 27, 2015 This weekend I started mocking up running boards. And I got the radiator mounted in the bed  Fans will be mounted. The wood they're sitting on is not a permanent fixture
JurassicJeep24 Posted April 27, 2015 Posted April 27, 2015 I'm kind of digging the wood fan mounts you should probably keep it.
Little jeep Posted April 30, 2015 Author Posted April 30, 2015 Got the driver side running board installed. Disassembled front 4 link to full weld links and mounts. Painted links and frame and reassembled. Rear will be done soon Trying to get all of the suspension done so when my coilovers arrive I can mount them and have it sitting pretty
Little jeep Posted May 1, 2015 Author Posted May 1, 2015 I love this truck! Thanks dude but you can't have her she's mine
Little jeep Posted May 1, 2015 Author Posted May 1, 2015 Finished rear links today. Color is Rustoleum sail blue. Love it. Going to roll on some Rustoleum semi gloss black on the frame. Used a rattle can in the tight spots. Also added some weld close-ups I was proud of
shelbyluvv Posted May 1, 2015 Posted May 1, 2015 That is a really cool truck. I would suggest you gusset those link mounts. With the forces they will see, in a truck that tall they will probably fail. Other that that I'm digging it. Totally different from the norm. Good work!
