Cooper st

I lift all my Jeeps and when I finish doing what I do I trade them in.

Only try to hang on to them for 3 years last one was 18 months.

Wife says I've got too much money and not enough br..ns.

Accountant say's spend it and spend big.

I bought it in from the US from Skid row protection for a couple of hundred bucks and when the ARB was fitted I had to cut the sides down a little to bolt it up under the bar it replaced the black plastic bit of crap that was there when the factory bar was on. No drilling required comes with bolts.

there web site is www.skidplates.com

Fitted the Daystar dash tray replacement today and easy to install, about 2 minutes. Now I have filled it full of crap already.

At the same time as I fitted the Rugged Ridge seat covers I did the scuff guards and the tail light guards. More items off the list.

I have a lift kit organised and it should be getting done in about a months time depending on the shocks being built. It will be heavy duty rated springs with shocks valved for Australian conditions and Australian made and is 2"+. Cant say who the manufacturer is but all will be revealed soon.
