Looks nice. I've been meaning to put the grill guard on with the lights. Maybe I will see your ride around K-town sometime. I'm just west of I94 in the county.

so an update.

yesterday i decided to do some good so i ended up painting my wheels all black besides for the bowtie in the center. i think they look great! and then i decided since i have the wheels off why not bedliner the rockers and everything. so i did. i took the most time preping the frame since i was down there with an air angle grinder grinding off all the rust and crap. took a good 2-3 hours of just grinding. i am in love with the end result so let me know what yall think and maybe i can go for another run for ROTM. lol. more pics up after i get them off my phone.

edit: also looking to build a roof rack like wharthogdriver or one off of the jeep forum. i got a welder for free so why not put it to good use. but somebody is going to have to teach me how to weld first. lol.

do you mean spacers for the rear tires so they stick out as far as the fronts?
