Started the old girl for the first time in the last month or so and took it for a lap of my block to blow out the cobwebs...Took a vid just for a laugh :D

It's taken quite a while due largely to tring to use a locally made adapter.(just bought a Advance Adapter in the end)and doing all the work myself. But to be honest I don't work on it that much as I just don't have the time.
To this stage it been a full build from the frame up..
Still have to get all the mods siged off..then it staight up the mountain for a mud bath..

Lift is thanks to stock lengh "H" shackes and about 1.5" lift in the springs and a "Dick Cepek" 3" body lift. The rest it because of the TJ flares I cut pretty high up..
Final plans would be lose the body lift, go spring over with wider springs and a buggy leaf. (enter dream sequence here) but even as it is it twists up pretty nice as a seperated/ wired wheeled / then painted and greased each leaf a few years ago..

As for the question "would I do it again" yeah but maybe not another 5 ...would like to do the same thing to a flat fender with full
"MASH 4077TH" type paint job.. ;) but having said that I have a baby only days away so it may be on the market soon.. [img]graemlins/crying.gif[/img]
