that looks pretty damn sweet. Nice work so far Mike.

Cutting it is one thing...scraping the crap out of it on the rocks a totally different thing...

I'd definitly consider a skid for that chassis bottom. The way it sits now the chassis might bend or crack in half on a hard hit.

Jeep is looking great though, really makes me want to finish my project.

I like the stance, looks great.
