Post by: Boxcar on February 05, 2012, 03:12:44 PM: I like the look of the satin black hood.
But in all honesty, I painted it satin black so my lights wouldn't reflect off of it at night..
Thanks for the great feedback...Boxcar...

Post by: Boxcar on February 12, 2012, 04:24:17 PM: SPOA, long travel shock conversion, track bar, disk brake conversion, drivelines, transfercase mount, high steer, shackles,
CJ 5 Zuke hybrid springs, cam, flowed head, carb conversion, header, 2" exhaust, flowmaster, 5.12 gears, lockers, T case re gear, Bumpers,exo cage, winch, off road lights x 8, and probably another $1000 of things I can't think of right now. It's finally IMHO a great trail rig.
But I'm not done yet. I feel this undeniable need to spend more time and $$$$ on my Zuke, I think it's an illness. I find myself reading magazines in the can for the first time in years. I dream about muddy places. Somebody help me.......Thanks guys...Boxcar...
BEFORE:
Crappy lift, crappy paint, RUST FREE, nice bumpers, poor attempt at a cage. other than that stock...
