I took it for a run at the UK sale nationals and enjoyed it but decided the wheel base could do with a stretch ... Before After I also built a new lower cage because my old one was about 5mm to high to run the screen (originally wasn't going to run the screen) |

Did a bit of a poor job of cutting the shell so it needed some filling Fill, sand, prime, fill, sand, prime, reinforce, fill, sand, prime... |

very nice lil Tj. me and my son are currently building him a new bright Tj also. and oddly, the topper we built has kinda the same look as yours. we haven't started a build thread yet, but we will soon, I have been tacking some pics along the way. rig looks really good, keep it up |
