Thought I would share a jeep that I have been working on for the past two years. It's been one of thoes back burner builds, so progress has been very slow. I only have a few little things left to do before it leaves the shop... This time. The customer will be bringing it back next winter for a front four link, coilovers, 6.0/4l60/stak swap and I am going to build a real cage for it at the same time.

still have to
weld up the rear suspension
front bumpstops
rear limit straps
tune rear suspension
plumb front break lines
plumb steering
build steering res.
build drive shafts
sleeve lower links with 2" .250 wall

but here it is. Oh dont mind the messy shop, I have been rearanging so things is a mess

I love how the guy (customer) your building it for has a built not bought sticker on it, you think you can swap built and bought around?
