Project "girly" jeep

[shortxjdoug]

i haven't updated this thread in 2 years. We still have this pile, it floated on jackstands for most of those 2 year getting parts and fuses robbed out of it. Then it got slammed back together when we moved and the rebuild was on.

we ripped out the roller axles we stuffed under it to get it moved from knoxville to chattanooga and installed a slightly refreshed 4.56 geared 30/super88 combo from the Ugly Truck remains.

Used a Rocksolid Fabrication dana 30 crossover bracket to build the new steering and panhard setup.

added a few final details, decent size tranny cooler, a simple left over front bumper and it was off to emissions and a swift return into the dd rotation

then much wheeling ensued as well as a few roadtrips...

we made more dents

we have since added front frame stiffeners and i plan on using it as a testbed for my CAD skills at work. i fully plan to be spoiled by having a plasma table at my disposal

nice wheeling pics~ What are your first projects with CAD/flat cutter resources?

What's that rock solid steering mount cost? I like that.

Going to do bumpers and cage to start. Mainly cut what i need to finish off a lot of little projects after that

I'm not actually sure what he charges for it considering I paid for this one by helping build a buggy. Bluetorch sells a similar bracket originally intended for yj springover conversions, but this one has a little bit beefier steering arm.
