[tnxj00]

saw it on your bada$$ xj!

OOO thats where it was, hahaha. Yours is lookin sick man, I'm feelin the no doors and fender cut!

Nice work. You've officially made the transition to "I dont care what it looks like" You just want to wheel.

that always makes it so much better when wheeling!!! doesnt it?!?

rear quarter panel cut/fold:

Ill get some daylight pics tomorrow when i get the new side view mirrors on...but im happy with how it came out. just need to seal it up from the inside and it'll be done.

Looks really good man! Although, I am sorry to see your jeep going from a nice DD to a beat up trail rig... It was soo nice the first time I saw it. But... now its nice in a differnt way. You will be able to try more things without worrying about tearing it up, and I like that!

 

[JeepAddict85]

thanks man...i dont know if i'll be able to follow you down some of the trails but im willing to try! cant wait til i get a trailer...then i really will beat on it!

so when do the bigger tires come in?

 

[Cnickgo]

Very nice! I did the same thing, it changes the whole look of the rear. It will make you want a new rear bumper though!

The cut and fold looks good, but the Jeep looks like mine now!!!

 

[JeepAddict85]

im not quite up to your level...but its getting there ha.

You've got to start breaking alloy shafts to get to his level.

 

[JeepAddict85]

ill pass on that...i only want to buy alloys once...

 

[thechief86]

what do you plan to do for the rear bumper? also, i wanna see the procedure when you seal it up from the inside as well. i've wanted to do this, but the inside and the bumper have been stopping me thus far...

 

[bigalpha]

Expandable foam?

 

[trail rate this]

That's what I used for my rear fenders. The PO did a complete hack job installing the rear Bushwakers.

 

[JeepAddict85]

nope. havent sealed them yet. I welded small strips of metal of cover the openings on the ends, then just spray painted it all. ill go back with clear silicone sealant and finish it up from the inside. for the bumper, ill be building my own.
