Looks good... Are those the Bushwacker flat flares, or actual tube flares??

They aren't tube, and they aren't that plastic crap either. Their are 100% steel plates and fenders welded on. Ill have to take some good close up shot of them some day.

I didnt make them. A guy in Florida made them custom for the guy I bought the rig from.

They even wrap under where my rear quarters are cut and folded too and bolted to the frame er.. uni-body.

I knew it.. I loved this rig since the day I seen it. So did you say you did not build it then, you bought it like this? Is this you in moab then?:driving:

Yep I bought it built. It had been sitting pretty much since that photo shoot for about 2 years, before I got it a year ago. The only pic Ive posted of it thats not me driving is the catalog pic, that one has the original owner George driving it.

Right now, I need to upgrade the steering box, and I need to pull off the bumpers and steel quarter panel/fenders off and repaint them. The rattle can paint is chipping off now.

Its definitely a beast and I got a killer deal on it. With everything it has on it, along with all the fab work done, it was easily pushing 18k into it, and thats not even adding in the value of it as a 99 w/ 115k miles.

Its pretty cool that you recognized it from the catalog pic. He told me there will be people who will recognize it as his old rig. I dont remember what mag, but it was also a featured rig in a 4 wheeling mag too, but I dont have a copy of that one.

Guess when you wrecked the other one you hit the "upgrade" button.
Very nice rig.
Glad to see you around man.

Hey since we were talking about your bumpers the other day, I contacted T&T to talk to them about their rear bumper to see if they still made them or not, since they don't have it listed on their site.. They said they took it down because they are revamping the design, and he sent me a few shot of the new design.. Think I am def. going to pick up their bumpers and sliders. They are going to have a tire carrier upgrade option with the new rear bumper... so if you decide you want to stick with their bumpers, figured I would throw that out there for ya..
