Up next is to lock the axles, put on a new exhaust and possibly some different bumpers.

looks good, but that thing’s f’n HUGE! what do you plan on putting up there?!?! haha

how do you plan on locking the axles?

I love my powertrax diff. I’d definitely recommend it for something you’re driving daily. Pretty aggressive but way better street manners than a true locker.

I like

I mainly wanted it for my Snowboard and other peoples skis and what not. I would otherwise have to fold down my seat and then I turn a 5 seater into a 2 seater which is laim.

I am also thinking about putting on a custom bolt in cross member so I can put 2 mountain bikes in there during the summer.

I may also put 5-6 dead bodies, 75 gallons of milk, 1 entire cow, or maybe a MG. I welded it up and got the metal all for free so I only have $17 into it for the rubberized black paint and primer. The paint isn’t perfect, but I figured I’d touch it up in summer.

I also like my cars to be raw and slightly ridiculous, but look good at the same time. Some people may say it is too big. I say too bad.

I’m thinking about finding some huge square lights to put across the front or maybe 4 yellow circle ones.

I will be also adding in some reverse lights on the back with a tail gating toggle switch. :slight_smile:

nice. Plan on rippin up my 98 cherOkee to match, satin black for the win, what size are those baby tires?

Tires: They are only 31x10.5’s

Locker: Probably going with the powertrax. I don’t think they make one for the front dana 30 though, do they?

No idea, but I haven’t ever wanted my front locked. Especially for winter driving. What you might gain in traction is going to be offset by handling like shit when it’s locked. I can’t stand understeer in a vehicle, so I wouldn’t ever consider a diff up front like I have in the rear (which happens to make the Jeep the most fun vehicle I’ve driven in the winter…drift machine).

Hello wind noise.

I like the MG idea :tup:

Looks pretty business.

Manly…

you can def do some serious hunting with that fucking thing prolli put 4 deeer up there XD

hit enter before each image tag fool.

looks good.

LOL.

also LOL at the pics w/ the leaning tower of Pisa and the White House.

I like it, wind noise shouldn’t be any worse than a Thule

This thing is a champ. I was rocking the shit out of the cage and it didn’t budge. Def some solid work man :tup:. Oh and we can toss a chair up top and give rides.

they make lockers for the D30, but you have to be carfull driving in the snow, and it kinda hurts your turning radious. If anything get a selectable for the front ( i kno big $$ )

and what rear do you have? the D35 or the 8.25?
