    Thank you, Chris. I'm going to try to get a video of it pulling the front wheels. With the 300 hp engine, solid suspension from the lift and 12" wide tires along with 4.88 gears I should not have been surprised. From what I've seen so far there are some Jeeps on here that could do well in a car show. I may have the drive train covered but I have some catching up to do in the looks department. Mine looks almost brand new but it lacks the wow factor some of you have.

    Thank you, I am very open to suggestions. I have upgraded all of the lights to LED, but I really think I should stick with the TJ look. I mentioned putting an 'Angry bird' facade on the front and I thought my brother was going to hit me with a wrench!

    Jeeps aren't angry. Mean people make them angry.

    Did you do any documentation or video cataloging as you built it. Do you have a build sheet of what parts you used. I would like to know what you did. I have not built one and I'm interested. What troubles if any did you run into. This would be a great build thread.
