New factory 15x8 Gambler wheels. One had a slight bend in the lip but it'll be ok for a spare/the price I paid for 5! The 3 hour trip to Carrolton and back was hellacious though.
Got started on the bumper today. Used a TJ winch plate as a starting base, and a scratch and dent stinger I got at work. This was about 5 hours of work with a food/hardware run!
The wheels look a little cambered from the panorama shot I took to get the whole front end. Hopefully we can finish up with a full day tomorrow!
I really like your jeep, I like seeing other wagonist who also ave a jeep.:smug:
I just did a full Tom Woods SYE and Drive line in my Grand Cherokee.. Huge difference its so smooth now!! good luck on yours, where are you getting your new HD Cross member from?
Haha yea man I do too! Your ZJ looks good, my friend has a 5.2 Limited in the same color. When I get the Rough Country long arm kit it'll include a heavy duty crossmember.
Thanks man! I got the rims swapped over to my Gamblers, I've got to get some wheel spacers though they currently rub the very outer most lug on the tire on the outside of the leaf spring.
I also hooked my winch up and swapped the cable for the synthetic rope. That saves about 30lbs on the front end. While at PullAPart today I also managed to pick up a drivers mirror, an ash tray, a fan shroud (rare to find in good shape), and a FACTORY front skid plate....I had one of the most successful trips to a junkyard I've ever had....lol
I was at East. A lot of parts change over between the two generations 84-96 / 97-01. My skid plate is from a 98. It had a gas tank skid as well, but sadly the tank shape is different. There were about 16 total I believe at East. lol I wish it were that easy finding wagons!
Haha, thanks dude! I figured you'd like it! What diameter is your stinger tube?
Rev im not exactly sure i asked for the tube to be made the same diameter as the Xterra roof tube on top .... but hopefully one of the Honda Farm Posse will chime in since Scrappy is there the could measure it

Here's mine:
Light mounted for test fitment. There is another tab on the opposite side.

Scrappy could use as much weight reduction as possible ..!!
