I agree with Dave. Make it to pretty and your afraid to do anything other than play in a muddy field. I think doing some preventative maintenance type stuff like you've done so far is all good so it will last a little longer but go to far and it just turns into a top off JKlike Jeep that your afraid to give hell. I think it's hard to stop at the fine line of just enough to make it more offroad worthy and still look cool or go to far and make it a lifted grocery getter. Just go ahead and bounce it off a tree early, you'll be happy you did and stop babying it...hahaha

Don't worry it's gonna hit the trails. I can't get out to the wood right now. We have a baby due at the end of the month. So can't get to far from home.

That is an example of why body armor/exoskeletons are a good idea.

I'd probably sell the body and frame for that if you added another zero on the end.


To get the other goodies its going to cost a little more. I'd be happy with getting close to my money back out of it though.

Depends on what parts you want.

Wheels and tires don't come with, they are a buddies borrowed for mock up.


Its far from completion.
