CWLONGSHOT Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Looks good!! How about some more stats on your rig!! CW
BLHTAZ Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 :cheers: Welcome... Nice score on the truck. Wish I had places like that to play around here.
Geonovast Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Has that bed been chopped down? You said 2.8, so it's an 86, which means it had to be a longbed...but yours looks shorter than a shortbed.
bryans87MJ Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Welcome. I too am new here and to the MJ...not so new to Jeeps as I am on my 3rd one :D
mvusse Posted May 21, 2008 Posted May 21, 2008 Welcome to the site. As somebody else (Ping Pong?) usually says: beer's in the fridge, and you probably don't want to sit on the tan couch. :cheers:

Eagle Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 I'm still curious about how you got a 2.8L in a shortbed. What year does the title say it is? Welcome, BTW
possum Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 That was a long bed by the looks of it. I think it has just been bobbed. Just my 2cents.
pineymike Posted May 22, 2008 Author Posted May 22, 2008 Long bed bobed is corect,go to mj projects for more pic's under yard truck turned rock crawler.
pingpong Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I think its all good.... I would definately boat side and bob the J truck :brows: As for the FSJ more boats side and some dove tailing along with FI set up :nuts:
