Well this is what it looks like ATM...

[Linked Image]

Currently has a 6" lift, 4 banger 5speed and a 9.5E.I. Superwinch....Waiting in shop are my 37" Iroks, Dana 44 front and Ford 9" that will be going in in the next couple of weeks....

Comming in next week that I already ordered are my axle bracket kits, my detroit locker and 4.88's for the rear 9", and my lockrite locker and 4.88's for the front Dana 44

Also in the next month I will be removing the 2.5L and the 5speed and dropping in a 4.0 H.O that I have and an AW4 that I have.

Still have to get 15x8 beadlocks, TJ engine harness for 6cyl, and new high steer components..

Also just purchased a new Lincoln Pro Mig 175 Welder and a New 12 ton tube bender, so I will be trying my hand at fabbing my own bumpers..

Those little tires looks like a blast to tool around with.

It looks like it is going to be a fun build. Should be a very capable rig with what your planning. It is always better to build your own rig, if it breaks you will know how to fix it on the trail. Good luck! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Tiki I am excited for you. Nothing feels as good as a bunch of new parts lieing there waiting to go to work.

You can save the time and money for blasting, just use degreaser and a stiff brush. I used that Purple stuff and the Green stuff (can't remember the name) from Auto Zone.Those axles are in great shape, new looking.

Just had to show you what dirty is........ <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
