Me and a buddy have wheeled together for the last 3 years and have always have very similar rigs (size and capability). A while back he got nervous that I was going bigger so he beat me to the punch and bought a pair of 60'S.

That's when the s**t hit the fan and we both went to town trying to get tons under our junk. Long story short, he's wheelin and I'm still wrenchin. We're leaving mid April for our 2nd Moab trip and I have a lot of work to get ready.

Jeep specs:
*04 TJ, stock motor, transmission and NP 231 with Teraflex 4 to 1
*79 f-350 front 60, 5.38's
*95 E-350 rear 60
*14' coil overs F&R
*108" WB
*39.5 Pit Bulls
*Double triangulated rear and 3 link front
*Full hydro Steering

Still have a lot to do including mounting coil overs, finish steering and track bar, rework rear cage, exhaust, possible rebuilding front frame section, and a million other things I've probably forgotten.
I've been doing a lot of work my self but have also received some needed help and motivation form Jon and Chase from ECGS. Also had some friends come over the Sat before Christmas to lend a hand.Thanks JR and Tracy.

I feel your pain. I got two friends to keep up with. One with deep pockets.

Cool build! Nice work.

I like fishies :p

Looks good. Can't wait to see it finished.

Looks like your off to a nice start. Keep up the good works and don't forget to post lots of pics so I can daydream about spending some coin as well.:D

Thanks for the kind words. I'll post up some other pics soon.

Any more updates?
