after a cage and some bondo

fresh coat of paint.

more.

after getting water in the motor it was time to cover it up and change the cage a little. No room for part's and not enough weight in the back I put a bed on it. also put a 205 case in crossover steering with hyd asist,propane,air and 35spline outers detroit locker's front and rear.

still not happy.

bought a turbo 400/203/205 off the board and wanted to keep my 4 speed so with a little scrap and a cnc mill i had a adpter made.

brandon at rides give my front end a face lift. new cooling unit and a grill for bling bling.

another motor this one I have a little money in new from oil pan up. mild cam,msd,billit dis,and painless wireing (which was a pain in the back side)

Hell yeh man, looks good! I dig a cab truck. You should consider moving the radiator to the rear and pushing your winch back, right up in front of the motor to shorten the overhang on the front end. The custom tranny/TC adapter looks good.

If I ever get it to stop breaking big stuff I plan on full hyd and pushing the front up about a foot.

 

[89wrangler]

Just raggin on ya! Hell mine has not been out of the shop since open ride at the flats and I didn't get to ride then. Your rig is looking great!
