Here is my baby after I lifted her. 4" skyjacker lift, 33X12.5X15 BFG A/T and 2" body lift. Also had a lock right in the rear. I'd still have her today if some asshole hadn't hit me on paseo.

I sure do remember that Jeep. (pours out 40 in honor) RIP blue Jeep :(

Very nice!
Is that out in the Puerco? I've never been out there, and i figured that over the Thanksgiving break would be a good time to go check it out.

Few more upgrades to the Jeep.

I still have yet to own a car with cupholders, so i decided to make it happen. I found a nice donor at the JY and swapped in a '98+ console. Unfortunately it wasn't as easy as it sounds, i had to fab up quite a bit of stuff for the e-brake to work. But, it's done, and i finally have cupholders. Also snagged some LeBaron vents while i was there, so those will be another project...

And the final big purchase, rims and tires:

Future plans: i might switch out for some real springs in the rear...my bastard packs have really flattened out lately :( Other than that, i need to do some cutting and figure out what to do about the fender flares, but i'm not going to go much further with it. It's a great truck and i love it to death, but it's still a 20-year-old car and i'm not going to be able to change that....

Thanks!
Yeah, i bought 5 wheels/tires so i have a real spare now. I need to figure out what to do with it! Eventually a bumper, but I guess it's going on the roof for now...

A little hard to see, but i pulled off the flares and cut/folded the wheel wells. Eventually i'll get aftermarket flares. This stupid thing is going to cost me a fortune :)
