Oh, I don't know about that, I think you are greatly underestimating yourself. I showed a picture of your jeep to a friend, he said, and I quote " he's getting ready for the wasteland festival." You're in Bro! Wasteland would be damn proud of your accomplishments! We enjoy following your build more than any other!Someday, I hope to be that awesome!!!
Driving to work tomorrow with the hood off will definitely make me more of a Blue Ridge Mountains Redneck... I can only hope someday to achieve Wasteland Redneck status!! ? ? ? ?
I have faith in you for some reason.
I think its great!Someday, I hope to be that awesome!!!

The black hood looks good! I think some form of black grill on the front and you're in business bro!
Yep… I should have expected you were way ahead of me.
Mediocre! Tredsdert, Mediocre!So I ordered these guys from Amazon for under $50, it was like $45 and change.
Just got back from my dad's, he was helping me install them.
Found out on the driver side that we needed to trim them a little bit because they were overlapping and it was causing the rubber to split away from the coil which I'm sure wouldn't have been good in the long run. So this being the passenger side, we precut it, had to trim a little afterwards, but fit beautifully in the long run.
We had to take the shocks off to get the coil to stretch out enough that we could fit it in with a little bit of 3M silicone paste. As an added no, if you don't own any silicon paste, it is probably the most handy thing on the planet. 10 times better than those aerosol lubes, and honestly it's hydrophobic so you can use it on your electronic parts as well. $15 for that little jar there on the tire, I've had it for 4 years now and only about half the bottle has been used.
It's too bad too because I have the Teraflex 1.25-in coil spacers to go over these, and the coils were so loose we could easily pop them out. I'm kicking myself a little bit because I could have installed both these RubberShox DuraTPE CSB Super Series spacers and the teraflex coil spacers at the same time, but instead I'm going to have to follow my previous plan of doing them in early August. It would have been like an extra 15 minutes max. Too bad.
It came with four green 50 lb zip ties, but I have a baggie of my own 50 lb zip ties, the black ones which I added so I had top and bottom on both holes on both driver and passenger.
It's kind of hard to tell from looking at the Wrangler, but it feels like it's sitting a little more upright with less sag in the front. It definitely did not bottom out once on the drive home, and I was taking country roads, potholes galore, trying to bottom out, and it didn't once. So these definitely are a great deal for $50. Well worth the money if you're costly bottoming out.
My dad and I went for a test drive afterwards and visited this washed out bridge near his house. My dad's 74, and still a beast in the garage!!
I love the Yuengling shirt bro but we got to come up with a (Tredsdert) T-shirt!So I ordered these guys from Amazon for under $50, it was like $45 and change.

Yeah the greens clash... but then that doesn't appear to be an issue for Greg. In fact, more his style!Mediocre! Tredsdert, Mediocre!
