Default Northeast Ohio Wheelin'

Hi all,
Name is Jay. I live in Northeast Ohio and have been wheelin my 98 4 door for a few years now. Here are the specs. All opinions and advice are appreciated. The rear bumper doesnt sit right because I had to chose between the body lift bracket and the hitch. I chose the hitch for now. Soon I will fabricate or replace the hitch to lift the bumper with the rest of the body.

Thanks Riddle, it's been awhile since I've been on the forum. Had to relearn how to use it yesterday. I did the headliner, visors and ceiling cluster last week. It was real easy and only costed about 60 bucks. I will be finishing with the doors and hatch soon. The top door inserts will be camo. The bottom inserts and rear hatch insert will be Blaze Orange.
