Looks awesome so far. I'm definately gonna follow this build closely. Seeing Donny's rig and Sean's buggy a couple years ago at the Annual is what inspired me to link my CJ5.. now you guys are steadily building buggies.. I followed Eddie's build now this.. I'm gonna have to show my wife this thread so she knows what to expect in the next year or so.. she's gonna hate you guys.. :flipoff2:

Are the rockwells stock width or cut down? Hubs going to be flipped? What do you think the finish width will be? Looks sweet but I know rockwells are wide and the pick of the buggy you showed in the background looks pretty narrow.
