Im right in the middle of trying to buy a house, so parts for the Sammi are on hold for a bit (plus I already have my Ranger and Explorer for wheeling).
I posted this pic back in 11, heres what it looks like now....

Trail Tough bumpers, 6"SPOA, 1.6 16v swap, 6.5:1 T-case, 32x11.5x15 Pro-Comp MTs.
My 1/18 ish....

Since those pictures were taken there's been a few changes though. I've swapped in a 1.6 8v TBI motor along with a 3 speed auto transmission. I rebuilt the cage to provide more interior room since I wasn't working around being able to use the top anymore. The rear go chopped off and 4 linked with 14" air shocks. It's also sitting on 39.5" IROK's with 15" Allied beadlocks. The dash was redone at the same time as the cage and all new gauges were installed.

Then I added a turbo...
