Starting out this weekend with some "not quite done" projects.
Engine skid








I don't have a pic of the front supports, but they're 1/4 angle attached to both sides of the frame.

Brake lines will be installed completely tonight, then on to the rear frame and anti rock.

Now that,s a skid!!! The rocks is gonna be runnin from ya Kurt that thing looks awesomely beefy!!...If awesomely is a word ya know what I mean?

WOW. I'm impressed as alwayse. That looks very nice.

I put the 37's on the rear today. Not much difference between the 35's in front, or so the picture makes it look.


I have a tiny clearance issue.



These are the shortest arms Currie makes for the rear. I think I'm gonna have to cut them a bit.


I keep as much wieght in the back as possible all the time to soften up the springs. I think it's starting to work...

I'll probably be ready to roll by July, but I'm going to be up in the Central/Northern Sierras for ten days the end of July so I have to pass on the Rubi this year.

Looks great Kurt. The skid came out really nice. Those 37's look like they stick out a bit.

[COLOR="Sienna"]Bro, excellent use of steering box skid for a chock-block. Those meats do stick out a bit. Any plans for some flares on the side of the SAVVY guards?[/COLOR]

Some more pics-



I like 'em tight, but this is getting serious


I had a feeling I would have to change the rear upper mounts, and I did. That damn exhaust just sis not want to go where I had originally wanted it to. But after the change, I think it's way better now


Somebody's jonesing... I can't get him out of the Jeep.
