RUSTICON got a face lift

[ShortTemperd]

Well got bored today so I decided to put the new rear shocks on and take off the trac bar in the rear to see how much better it rides and it was a positive thing.then decided to make my own rear fenders and cut out some rust. so I took the flairs off and cut about 3" off and going to diamond plate the rear panel and the rockers and then build some tube fenders for the front.

Lol like the name on it

[ShortTemperd]

Yea it was on there when I got it i kinda like it might keep it on their except its a yj.... Lol

[ShortTemperd]

Well moving slowly but blew the rearend already so picking up some axles with 4.10's this weekend hopefully and last night picked up some tube fenders and rocker guards and a stinger

[ShortTemperd]

Stingers on, mounted the lights to it. Hopefully gonna do tube fenders and axles over the weekend

[ShortTemperd]

Got some new axles today with 4.10's swapped out front and rear. Running with no track bars or a sway bar right now, sway bars goin back on but bushings where junk so I'm going to run without them for now. Next step is putting on my tube fenders.







I tore apart my rear axle to figure out why it locked up on me and let free after some backyard boggin and found this in there... Nothing on the spiders or ring and pinion was missing any pieces just nicks and dings from where it was hitting.. Found that kinda odd



And how she's sittin now

Well not going to be able to put tube fenders the 4x4 ain't working so I think the vacuum actuator or w.e it's call is bad so going to swap it out from the other axle tonight...
