sry took awhile but things didn't workout as i planned so there has to be changes on this build the INTERIOR is a BIG problem so I think I have to take the scale out of this build in order to have things work b/c the interior is blocking me from mounting bat box and electronics..

nice looking rig (put some longer links on the front to make your wheel base fit the body) here is a little something im working on you may remember it lol


i just can not decide what tires to use what looks better

Instead of longer links just lower the ride height...USe taller shock towers and squat the jeep so the WB lengthens..Then I think itll look better..Id use some wideners as well..If not then a wheel with a wider offset...I think you could make this thing look REALLY good!!

Ohh...comp cut the rear fenders too..The curve aint doing it!..
