I just got "The Nasty" about a month ago. It is my first jeep and I love it. It is stock right now, but I have plans for it. The Nasty is a 95 with the 4.0 engine. I had to replace the CPS today. Pain in the neck. But I got it. Now I am off to Pull N Pay to see if they have turn signals. Well here are a few pics of The Nasty.

Update! Got a fuel pump, L/R tail light, both front corner lights and 2 12x12 pieces of diamond plate from the junk yard for 42.00. SCORE!!! I would have put them all on The Nasty today but it was getting too cold by the time me and the gf got home! So tomorrow I got a lil work to do.

Ok so yeah I had to replace the leaf springs. It took me 2 1/2 days. All in all it was not that bad. Just 1 bolt kicked my a$$. So here are the pics.

Tire clearance before...

The Nasty got renamed by my gf the other day. Because of some of my plans for it. She said I should call it Diamond. I kinda like it. Your thoughts?
