ok well went into work today and got some stuff done. got the fuel tank back in and fired her up that was a good sound to my ears.

moved onto the tailgate that he had just sitting there with a clamp holding up. fitted up some latches and some straps and i love the look of it.

yeah i think im going to get another set of exteneded rugged ridge ones for the rear for now and have them mounted right at the top of the tub. as for the front if i cant make some i might get someone to bring me in a set of tnt hylines but i dont think they make them with a 6" flare and i really need full tyre width coverage.

as for the tailgate i bought it off hollywood about a year and a bit ago. i think its a new cj tailgate with the swag off road drop down tailgate kit. http://swagoffroad.com/Drop_Down_Tail_Gate.html

well got some more done tonight i have done have done more in two days than what this knob shine did in 3 months.

always wanted to flush mount the rear taillights.
made a template first of all


then measured up where to mark the template to the tub. wasnt to nervous making the first cut considering how the jeep looks at the moment that and if i ************ it to bad i can cover it with some armour which is what i will be doing anyone in the future.


Got it in there took a couple of goes obviously my template wasnt that spot on.



Shows how far you actually sink them.

And the finished shot. Still not sure what im going to do about the spot where the old hinges go. Probably just black paint until i get some armour made up.



Tomorrow night hopefully my extended normal flares show up so ill be tackling that. But with a twist ill be placing them right up on the tub edge as a hiline. Have to cut the wheel arch into the tub to clearance it and will get some sheel metal cover to cover the hole that will be left. who thought i would ever have to tub a jeep.
