looking good topher, this is brian, my bro and i bought the quick disco's off you, i heard you're building a 9inch, hows that goin?
 
yeah brian the 9" isn't as bad as i thought it was going to be...the hard part is getting all the parts together and trying to get it all lined up but it's going good fro right now...i'm taking pics and once i get it done i'm going to post the build so all can check it out!!!! many thanks for the props guys!!!
 
WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE BUMPERS FROM OR DID YOU BUILD THEM. I HAVE A CO-WORKER THAT JUST INSTALLED A 4 1/2 WITH 33. YOUR JEEP LOOKS GOOD.
 
me and a buddy built them... took a while to get it the way we wanted them but i think they look great and they've held up to everything ive thrown at them!!! if you want better pics let me know and i'll get some up for everyone!!!!

Good lookin bumpers man! ARB would be proud!
 
i'm going to try to find a pic of the rear bumper for all to see also!! i'm especially proud of that one!!!!
 
the rear looks like it'd look nice from what i see from the sides of it

is that a rusty's longarm on it?
 
bumper does look great, but you might want to consider what might happen if you get it hung on an obstacle you are trying to back off of. that part hangs down alot and its just an edge. you could maybe extend it back a little more?
 
yeah i've thoght about the reverse angle problem but so far i haven't hit anything to worry about....the lift and the tires have helped in clearing obstacles i've come up to so far.... but the reason it sticks down so low is because of the radiator...i built it down that far because i wanted to protect it incase of rocks or something like that...

the long arm kit is from a local 4 wheel shop that custom built them for me...Cape Fear 4x4...

thanks for all the props and since i just had a chance here's the best pics i can find of the rear bumper .....

is that bumper from that shop in wilmington, they used to have a website but it doesnt work anymore? i've seen that back bumper before
 
The website was offroad-fabrication.com I think. Guys name was Dave (among others) that built stuff like that. They were all pretty cool guys.
 
yeah Dave and Brad a buddy of mine and i built that one... Dave was riding it around for a while then Brad had it now I have it....you probably saw it on Daves black ZJ.....
 
i saw it on a light green zj that was pretty big....longarm big
 
yeah i'm hoping that the damn tax delivery guy will hurry up with my refund so i can get a down payment on a truck then it will stay doorless!!!! i definately like the way it looks and you just can't beat the air blowing up your shorts going down the road...which doesn't happen alot for us ZJ guys......
