Default How to tell when you mods have gone too far....

Speaks for itself?

I mean I can get away with - 'Honey we just really need Adj Control arms for the safety aspects of correcting her posture and balance after a lift"
However I think 'Honey I actually paid for it to look like this" would have me in the dog box more than the 4 days a week Im already their..

For a yankee build I reckon the exo cage looks pretty sweet. I like the way he has done away with the gaurd and just plated up the cage. That would be a real fun rig to wheel. Comfort, reasonable power and well its got flex, I wonder what it looks like resting on all fours?
As far as an excuse to te mrs goes.... "I didnt realise after the lift, (because of the higher COG) i need to cage THE OUTSIDE of the Jeep to keep it legal. Its all about protecting the occupants darl."

I am also sure Vicroads and the Victorian cops would have a field day over this one.

The cops are a lot more flexible in most US states than here, although I think this one is a pure trailer queen.
