Well here is a shotty cell phone pic of it after the weekend. Got the bumps mounted and decided to throw the springs on it to see where it sat. All the weight still isnt on there but it sits where I had it planned :) Does look huge though after starring at it at full bump for so long ;)

Front is 225 over 250 and the rear is 200 over 250. The rear may be a little stiff. Have to see for sure on the first run :) as of right now everything seems good though so we will see.

Ok i've got a few updates but not to many ;) I finally got my brake pedal situation figured out. I have such long legs I ended up going with a forward mounting MC. At first I was going to use a two pedal wilwood setup. With my legs being so long and not to much room I ended up going with a single pedal CNC. Ill run cutting brakes to make up for the loss of the other pedal. I also go my radiator mounted (It will have flanges on the engine tube so that the radiator and engine can be removed). I also got the seats mounted. I have decided to change up the front bumper to fit the winch but have yet to complete that. Now on to the fun interior :)

HAHA funny you ask. There is a stair well that goes down to a mechanical/storage room right there. There used to be a hand rail right there. Now this is where it gets funny. when I had my jeep I nocked it into gear and the jeep went sailing through the railing and into the house :eek: I just remodeled my house so I built that block wall and the shelf on top for more storage room. Or a barricade for off road vehiculars :rofl:


Thanks for the complements guys!!! :D
