Lookin' good! Not much more noble than restoring a Jeep, well maybe restoring a Willys, but it's real close. Good work, keep it up.

Your project looks like it's moving right along. Nice color choice! Also, thanks for posting the link to that paint company; their prices are reasonable. Keep us updated on the build......

Thanks. I thought their prices were pretty good too. I have their color chart if you ever want to see it just let me know. Otherwise its like $3. The semester ends April 24th so I'll be hardcore wrenchin' and takin' pics.

Why? They are 2'' lift. Thats what was on there when I got it and I'm trying to spend as little as possible.

Yeah those shackles are going to sway really bad. An easy fix would be to weld a peice of 1x1 on the shackles between the spring and the frame mount. Make the shackles look like an H. Cheap and Easy.

Sorry guys, I let this thread die pretty much. I was more worried about finishing my Jeep I guess. Anyway, my jeep has been done since august 08. Here is the finished product.
