Big thanks to everybody who helped make this happen in such a short time. Patrick (pbmcauliffe) at Those Guys Rods & Customs did an amazing job on the cage, tube flares and rockers; I would highly reccomend them to anybody looking for any kind of custom work for their Jeep.

Also a big thanks to everyone who helped put Humpty back together again. Jeremy, Ryan, Matt, Ian, Alex, Rich, Jason, Sean were all essiental in the completion. Special thanks to Matt_West for putting up with the two white XJs filling up his shop and front yard for five days.

Still to come are some Claytons Hard Arms, courtesy of Adam & Co. at Clayton Offroad. Also due by the end of the week are a set of 35x12.50 Trxus M/Ts that should fill up the wheel well a little better. Either way, mk. II will be lowered at least an inch from where it sits now.

Lastly, thanks to John and everyone at ACRO for helping at every stage of the project, including some things yet to come. :cool:

Looks good Matt, glad to see you got the tires inflated. If only you had a small portable electric compressor similar to the ones they sell at costco, you might have saved alot of time and energy.:shhh:

They are welded to the trimmed fender and then also to the rocker replacements.

1. call shop that does fab/tube fenders
2. pay shop to build fenders
3. have friends come over and bribe with beer to install tube fenders

My guess as to how it went down.
