caleb, yea, i can deff fit them now. maybe a tiny bit of cutting on my fender, and not having a full bumper helps there. 35s will be in the future for sure, whether its taxes or when i get spare money after the DD exploder, i will get them.

jb, yea, lol. and quite a bit of toe out my the passenger tire from running into a curb at 10mph lol
that was just set down. i drove it around the block and it settled down some. another 7 mile drive to the alignment shop tomorrow and then ill be good.

Appreciate the offer though.

I'm not buying them back, haha.

THey do great it mud as long as you have the power to clean them out when they are digging to China. Red clay not much tires out there will do good, I ran them in GWNF and they were one of the best for it. Rocks they slide a lot, I see guys sipe the tread to get better traction on them.

Had some time today to clean up the garage. Loosely throw the hood and grill on the Jeep and to keep my soft top off the floor I threw that on as well. Organized all my wiring and interior pieces to the Jeep. Will be trading a 5spd trans for a AW4 auto trans from a 01 Cherokee next weekend, including all wiring for the trans, tcu and torque converter. My 03 TJ was an auto an I'm going to keep it auto. My 01 TJ is a 5spd so I'll have both types of TJ's. I snapped a few pics before leaving the garage. Since this won't be a beauty queen I picked up a tweaked black grill, has a small dent in it but will be doing some pulling and body work to get it some what straight. The hood also has a few dents in it that I'll be working out the best I can. Reason why I'm not concerned about dents is the windshield frame has a dent, the driver rear quarter behind the wheel has a dent, I'll be stretching the wheel base and cutting the body also. Plus my yellow TJ was mint at one time an the first dent I put in it kinda made me sick. So I'm already getting past this with the black TJ and I'm building it for harder wheeling then just trail riding.
