Looks great! We need some photos of it in the daylight! How’s the ride with the new suspension?

I'll be getting those soon. New track bars came in recently, just waiting till I have enough time to install the front sway bars and track bars at this point. It drives very well, straight as an arrow. My dad says its bumpy, but he's old and drives a BMW everywhere lol. Here's a picture I took the other day in his drive way yesterday.

Here's some pictures testing the flex and offroadablity. I'm absolutely impressed at this jeeps ability and comfort level offroad. Coming from my long arm LJ to this is a night and day difference. Its effortless even in 4low.

After waiting for 3 months, my JLU arrived yesterday! Travis, beautiful Tank Jeep! Can you tell me what you ended up doing with your tire/wheel takeoffs? Getting new shoes on Monday, need to figure out what to do with the takeoff stuff.

Beautiful build ! Killer deal on those shoes!

I sold my wheels and tires and a few other odds and ends here on the member posting board. Sold my wheels the same day of posting if I remember correctly.
