        it is out of Kevins backyard shop and at our friends other backyard shop for the fab of the tire carrier and just to dry out from the rain didn't have my top on, but the hardest part of the whole thing was the gearing,never done them before took me a week and a half....but so far so good. and I say almost done because are these jeeps ever really done, I can think of at least three things I would like to do next but just need to finish this part then move on to the next

            [COLOR="Sienna"]Looks sweet. But I thought "Jeep" and "done" never collided in the same sentence?[/COLOR]

              Just Empty Every Pocket

              I guess done is only ever a temporary solution. Until another pocket fills up that is....


              Nice build! See you out on the trails
              An XJ will always cost you less then any girl ever will, and you will always know when the spark is gone.

                    there are a few times that jeeps are done..

                    ...the day you sell it..
                    .. or when the insurance company give you a check minus your deductible...

                        I was going for a cheap build and was tracking what I spent but looking at the total I realize it wasn't so cheap I'm about 500.00 over budget and I'm sure it will go up from there in the future these Jeeps sure like you to throw money at them.......but got the tire carrier done today just got to paint grease the barrings and tighten everything down it comes home tomorrow
