Will do. I hope to do a little side work with it all. If not I will just sell it when all done.

Shopped online, who am I kidding thats the way we buy all our Jeep goodies for the most part. Arrived yesterday. A Swag Offroad hydraulic ram adapter for my JD2 32 tubing bender and a much less expensive tubing notcher. Let me say this tubing notcher is every bit of what I hoped for and is...

Thanks, and yes this is completely a money pit. But I love it!

The addiction is real... Looks good, keep it coming!

I hate to say it, as you seem set on the flat tow. But a nice flatbed with electric brakes is the only way to go. The trailer will literally pay for itself. The wear on the tires alone is going to save you. The resale of the Jeep will be much better as well, in the end. Seems money is no...

Nice! I will be going to the Gulches as my maiden voyage to test my rig when its finished being built. "Hey kids, build a sand castle. Don't tell mommy what I am about to do". LOL

I have run Nitto's as well and they are a great tire. If you are staying with stock size I would probably recommend you first decide how much you want to spend. There are so many awesome choices and you can find some nice tires on eboy these days. Most of the inexpensive tires will be made of...

Except I like it more when Santa pays. Lol

Updates? Ok, why not. Built a welding table out of 1/4" plate and square 2x2 1/8" Picked up a Badlands Apex 12k winch from "HF" $450 Picked up a Klutch welding cart from "Northern tool" $90 Gears and Lockers arrived

Ford Dana 60 Kingpin Knuckles $200 Will ship!

The frame is at the sandblasters. It fit in the back of my 8ft. bed quite well. In case anyone is wondering. I have done everything by myself including loading the frame in to the truck. Slow and steady as they say. I forgot to take pics loading it up and in the bed, so I will take a few...

Thanks, is there anything else I should check? I just hope to hold off on a rebuild since I am up to my ears on the rest of the Jeep.

My initial measurements gave me some room to play. But I won't know for sure till I frame it and set the body back on. I will pull the cover off and take a look at it. There is a local one that ran a generator with 700 hrs under 4k

I figured I would answer the questions with a little background. I fell in love with Jeeps and rock crawling in 2011 after I had bought my first Jeep it was an '02 TJ. I had dumped 30k of deployment money in to it. All nice bolt on stuff, it was an extremely capable Jeep. Now I had the bug...

Sweet rides, I had a '89 K5 and put a corvette block bore over in it. Love those trucks! You are my hero for putting a Cummins where a crappy power stroke would be. I bet it pisses off plenty of people. I love it. I have a 19 Cummins dually that I wish was 12v instead. I mean that motor is...

I've always wanted to build a '67-'72 GM 4x4 and put a 12v in it. I guess this current build will have to do for now. OD would be nice but I don't plan on hitting the pavement with it too much.

Now for the build list, here is a list of what I have. This build started years ago, so much of it has been long thought out and pre-built in anticipation of becoming a crawler some day. Parts on hand: -Cummins 4bt -GM TH400 trans -NP203 & NP205 with Northwest Fabs Doubler kit -Dana 60 steer...

Started my build with an ordinary basic 2 door JK 2010. I started a build thread on another forum, but seen this forum as an app (which I am a fan of) So far I have pulled the entire drive train and have removed the frame. I am going to take the frame to get sandblasted before I start...

Do a Metal carport or something similar to get by. I lived in Lake Placid, NY for 3 years so I understand the 8 months of winter thing. Ugh! I had that problem in NY so I got a load of gravel. I ended up about 6"+ for about
