The jeep has been far from ready. I think if all goes well there is a little urban test I need to film this week. I might get some footage out at the dunes this weekend depending how cold it is I guess. I was planning on taking my ex-gf so she hates the cold and will not get out to film unless its warm.

Jeep looks good Chad! Was this before or after the rear shock setup? Looks like you're bumping a bit early.

This was just a couple days ago... Not really bumping early, just not wanting to bump off my flares. I had to change to the 4.5" polys on the rear so I did'nt lose my rear flares on hard hits. Thats about the most uptravel I get until I figure some way of mounting the flare higher.

Ha ha wow after that car I had to buy a toyota. We bent the front clip on that so bad the hood would only shut unless we jumped on it, the radiator was leaking pretty bad, and we broke an a arm mount. You know even with all that beating the thing ran just fine and other then sitting a little low on one side it drove ok too.

Ditch the flares and trim the fender, mount some rusty's flex flares up higher if you still want flares.

I think Im going to just make a mold from the stock flare and make a fiberglass flare that has a flat back so I can 3m tape it up over a fully cut wheelwell. It gets kinda hard when you have three project vehicles though.

Thats a good idea ive been planning something similar, but I dont think a glass flare would hold up so well unless its never touched by anything. I also though of just getting two stock flares, sectioning them and plastic welding them back together and then reinforcing it with some glass. That way I could move the flare way up and it would still look stockish.

Yeah I thought of just getting a piece of aluminum and using epoxy to stick it to the back of the flare. I think fiberglass or epoxy would hold up fine.

We took our truck out for a little test on the new engine and re-worked shackle angle.

Looks to me like I need to do a little less rebound dampening in the rear but other wise i think were close to being ready.

It was fun, if I get the truck to pass safety and such we are going out next weekend after I re-valve the rear a little.
