rack looks good jon! difference from mine is i have mine sitting lower now. (just over my speaker box) but looks like you have some taller stuff sitting on yours and my taller stuff went on top of my rack.

Yeah i liked you setup too. Ulitamtly i wanted the tools below the rack in the event of a roll over . And it also makes organization easier as well- dont have to remove everything to get to the tools
 
That roll bar padding might be a little hard. It's for cage when driving with helmet. But you do have a hard head

This is good to know.

wow. Its incredibly hard. Got some today. I went ahead and ordered some dual rate padding from BSCI , soft outer layer, hard inner layer. Ill probably just use this stuff for reno since the other stuff wont be here by then.
 
Seats are in.
 
Wow. Looking great. I've heard a lot of good things about Rob's work. I like how close you're keeping the cage. Looks good. What brand seats are those? And if you're selling your stockers, let me know!

PRP daily driver series, +4" backs. custom color palette.Through Daves offroad.

Rob does good work and he is fast and affordable.

stockers already are probably going into my MJ, or I have 2 guys in front of you. these stockers are much more comfortable than the PRP, but the PRP are more supportive, and they suck you in very good, you feel like you are really in the jeep tight.


I grabbed some TJ/XJ seat brackets from a guy on pirate for 40$ . they actually worked. not sure what brand.
 
Man that cage looks amazing! The seats are super clean looking in there! How do they feel? Hard to get in and out of?
 
I got the prp DD seats on purpose. Sides are lower than normal suspension seats so they are easier to get in and out of. Its a very firm feeling in them. With the brackets they sit high but I am tall so its not too high. The brackets were bolt on to the factory seat bases to the prps.


Did a ton of exhaust work last night including welding in flanges and checked caster - didnt check after the new uca heims- caster was at like 1-2*. Brought it up to 7* and the rig is much more stable now and tracks much straighter.

Reminder : dont forget to subtract the angle of the floor from your caster readings!

Imagine a firm yet soft cloud. holds well but not uncomfortable for a long ride... Super comfy onroad and on the bumpy trail.
