simple 1 ton tj

[baby hulk]

this is what my tj well look like when it is finished

 

[jeepinmatt]

I ran a stock master cylinder and an adjustable proportioning valve inline going to the rear. Typically had it set at about 60% on top of the stock TJ's proportioning which was still in place. The rear was a FF dana 60 with disc conversion.

finally got to go play a little happy dove season

 

[baby hulk]

Been a while since i updated the build page. I have really enjoyed the one tons and the freedom they have given me (selectable locker is awesome). I finally got around to trimming the rear fender gained about 2". Swag offroad big hit bumper installed, Also got my poison spyder hood louver installed.

 

[baby hulk]

Getting ready for my spring project and its down to stretch the front 5"(16" fox coilover res, behind axle steering,ballistic brackets, drive shaft, genright coilover hoop kit) or put a cage in it and a few minor upgrades (Poison spyder full cage with tie in and grab handles, monster liner tub, swag lifted body mounts change upper control so it is adjustable at both ends) .really going to boil down to money

 

[baby hulk]

learned how to paint and finally got me a set of half door's

 

[baby hulk]

damn last time I was on was jan a lot has changed I finally got me a shop

 

[baby hulk]

Getting everything layed out for the cage. Also put in a few more orders to poison spyder.

 

[baby hulk]

Got the cage tacked up it fit perfect. Hopefully ill get it pulled out and welded up tomorrow. Also ordered a 50" led bar and ps mount.

 

[baby hulk]

Pulled the cage to finish up welding. I ended up getting it out by myself as my tractor couldnt get high enough to pull it over the tub all most feel out of the back of the jeep. My new welder is awesome make welding a breeze. Also got in my 50" led bar which is boss.

 

[baby hulk]

While I was waiting on my cage to come back I lined the inside of the tub and the outer railes turned out great. Also decided to put a double din in the dash they had them on sale at freemans so I picked one up and a set of new speakers for the dash. I will try to do as detailed a job as I can on the install as there was not alot of info on these mod. That brings us up to last night when I got my cage back from the powder man. My cage wouldnt fit ended up busting the front glass out cause the lower front spreader bar was hitting the glass. Had a hell of a time getting the soft top on so yeah then

 

[baby hulk]

The double din was fairly easy to do as long as u now a little bit about fiber glass. I started off by picking up a 08 jk double din install kit basically 2 brackets to hold it in the dash. I removed the outer lip I also had to remove some of the plastic that was below the upper vents. After that the dd would slide in. I bolted it to the bracket wired it up and that was the easy part. The fun part was molding the face ring into the dash. I marked what needed to be cut out removed that set the ring in problem was the dd is not as wide as the stock st up so I used the face ring from the old cut it and glassed it in.. Once it was good and cured I still had pretty good size gaps so I took blue masking tap tapped the back side of the plate mixed some resin and poured it in the cracks I just left the tape on the back it made the whole face plate strong. After that tedious sanding and bondo and now it looks like the jeep was made that way .I used dupli color bedliner as the paint and just backed it up farther while I was painting it to make it not so textured
