Starting off with a 99 cherokee. purple, reasoning for it being called barney. This is the second jeep i"ve built. I'm doing HD offroad Engineering frame stiffeners, Rough Country 6.5" long arm, cut fenders, rear quarter tuck, SYE, and some 35" pro comp xterrains. hope you all injoy.

im up north in elkhart indiana. i have been workin on the jeep since 8 this morning. getting wore down. i'll post up some pics later tonight.
 
ok i have some updated pics. had a lot go on today. first thing i did was break off a crossmember bolt to start the day, not so good. I broke off 2 shock bolts, the crossmember bolt, and had trouble with a leaf spring bolt. but all is fixed now. i got the rear end all finished except the brake line. Heres some pics for you guys.

finishing up the frame stiffeners.

i clicked image code and inserted it in the "insert image" button on here but it still came up red x's. it works for me on jeepforum but not here.
 
That ought to be a very nice set-up when finished.

BTW, I call mine the Barneymobile:

Welcome! Keep treading around this site, you'll find LOTS of useful info. But i'm sure you figured that out by now.

Looking forward to the progress of the build. Keep up the good work.
