I wanted a jeep so I searched around for a few months looking for just the right one. I found this little guy in mississippi. Zero rust and 157000 on the clock. The only thing wrong with it was a little body damage and the headliner was falling off.

First mod on the list was to get the healiner off the top of my head when driving. I had some
realtree camo fabric and it turned out great.

Next up was to get it in the air. I chose the rc 4.5 long arm kit because I got a hell of a deal on it. I was going to go with a short arm system but for the price I couldn't pass it up. I found some used maxxis bighorns with only 300 miles on them for next to nothing.

Overall I'm very happy with the end result. I have been dd'ing it for about a month. I haven't taken it offroad yet. Work has been crazy... I plan on taking it to eglin next week for its first outing.
