you guys will have to bare with me on this build until the money starts flowing in quicker.

so far i have back halfed the rear, taken all four doors off, and shaved the piss out of the fenders. currently working on removing the power and drive train

plans:

- chevy 350
- th350 or th400, which ever i get my hands on first
- np205
- chevy d60 front
- 14 bolt rear with disk brakes
- rubicon express long arms
- 8" rock krawler coils
- 6" rock krawler leafs with 2" shackles
- h1 3 piece bead locks
- 42" tsls
- full exo

progress is gonna be slow not only because of money but also because i have two projects currently going on so i will do my best to keep this updated.
