    good successful couple of days

    Well done. Need to update some pics. Nice to have a jeep project go smooth. Seems like so many of them end up taking twice as long as they should.

    Jeep wont start in cold at all

    safari bikini top

    Sorry It won't fit your Tj. There's a few things that are different. Buy the correct one for your year and you will be happy. You do need to by a no drill channel as well. Good luck.

    cj5 wanting to stretch the wheel base

    Hi. I widened my jeep by putting Scout 44 axles underneath it and when I put a shackle reverse kit inn I decided to move the front axle forward 4" for proper flex of the shackle. Glad I did it rides better and less weight on the front end now. Good luck to you!

    You looking to offroad? I know some brands the tires are taller then others even thou stating the same size. Also rim width can play a part there. Just a heads up. Good luck.
