Hippie66 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Yes, and straight, except one small ding on the driver's side fender, under the flare. The bumpers are not part of the deal, I'll pull them and return. I have a buddy that builds awesome winch bumpers. He built one for my ZJ and it has been tested and abused on recovery work.
Hippie66 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 Passenger side fender has one bolt left, I may have to remove the rock sliders to get to it.
Warrior Spit Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 That's my plan. I'll look for a donor for the swap. Going to have to start researching. I am staying Renix, truck runs great. May swap to automatic and sell the AX15. I'm in the market for an AX15 for a good price if its ready to sell.
Hippie66 Posted February 7, 2017 Author Posted February 7, 2017 It's still in the truck. It's a 2 wheel drive trans. I can't ship, only local pick-up.
Hippie66 Posted February 8, 2017 Author Posted February 8, 2017 Damaged front passenger side bumper mount
Hippie66 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Started working on getting metal massaged back into shape today. This was after the initial hammer session. Still needed work.
Hippie66 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 A little more hammered persuasion... Ended up with this.
Hippie66 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Drivers side fender swapped. My original black grill survived. Passenger side fender on
Hippie66 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 Decided new marker and parking lights were needed. Also found matching black pieces that the marker lights fasten to. Not bad, about $65 shipped, all are new.
Tex06 Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 Your buddy who made that front bumper.....have his contact info? I think I finally found one I like that holds a winch :D
Hippie66 Posted February 9, 2017 Author Posted February 9, 2017 If you're looking at the bumper on the XJ, that's an ARB. Photobucket is having issues or I'd post pics of my ZJ bumper he built. He has only does local work, fits them up on the vehicle, then removes to finish weld.
Hippie66 Posted February 10, 2017 Author Posted February 10, 2017 I got the MJ hooked up to my Smittybilt XRC 9.5K unibody straightener this evening.
Hippie66 Posted February 14, 2017 Author Posted February 14, 2017 Body repairs are done, as of Saturday. It took half the time to make repairs as it did for the insurance to pay off. 4x4 swap will be next.
