Looks like I will be doing Payette on the 15th and possibly Crown King on the 16th, I am sure there will a Bull Dog Canyon run one evening before that though to do my shake down if you guys would be interested.

The Jeep has been delayed a bit with Dave being slammed at the shop, but we have done a few other new things plus there will be some prototype parts getting put on :) Latest addition is WJ knuckles and high steer, tube fenders are still in the works and super excited to see all the steel work.

Teaser pic, have a busy weekend but will finally do a write up this week. Loving the new look, but now want bigger tires :-)

The long arm install was fun and a headache all at the same time, lol. Working on a 16 year old unibody that has been wheeled takes some patience and brute force at times to make things fit and line up, luckily everytime one of us was getting frustrated the other was calm and came up with a simple solution. While we were doing the long arm install I had the 231 tc I picked up over at knuckle busters to change out the internals with the big chain and planetary gear upgrade plus install a sye. Very happy I did the tc swap at the same time.

Dave and the boys at Knuckle Busters fine tuned the lift, ordered the drive shafts, fixed linkage on the 231, installed the front truss/chromo shafts/Aussie locker/Riddler diff cover, tapped into my existing sliders and added tube fenders and mounted my Mack Bulldog.

 

Their work is very impressive and the guys are great to deal with, next time home they are doing crusher corners and a frame stiffener kit.

Picked up some 35x12.50x17 KM2s for a grgreat price and then my buddy who works at Discount took care of me for rims (yes the same ones, just in 17"). Picked up a complete set of doors for $100, gonna strip the usable parts and make some half doors. Painted all the new steel and touched up the rest of the brown.

 

Realky love how everything turned out, the fenders blend amazing with the existing steel. So far no rubbing on the tires and the look is great, I need a spare now though.

Thanks bud :-) In Payson, but with the family at my grandfather's place. Payette is on the list though, hunted the area a lot but haven't wheeled.

From Letzroll's BBQ over the weekend, what a blast. Still a lot to do, but she has come a long way in year.
