its a bit crude, and still unpainted, but...its a half door. Gotta add a handle as well.

I think I may lower the cage down a bit too...I'm thinking cut about 1/4" out of the height.

Ya dude, lower it. How the hell you gonna put a top on with that cage haning out the top?? :flipoff2

:

It looks good though. Would look better with the cage a little lower IMO.

Looks a lot better with the half doors. Handles are overrated!

Hah, being on 38s vs your 54s will be enough of a disadvantage

sleeved my lowers and added heat shring to the uppers and steering to make it look less like threaded rod :grinpimp:

also fixed my front pinion angle.

had some time sunday night chilling in the garage and I decided to try something that I had been wondering about.

I took a piece of piano wire and some servo mounts and made a rear sway bar for the tj. Seems to work great at speed and still lets it flex pretty well.

Also built a rear bumper last week before the offroad festival to grab some scale points! :grinpimp:

its the same stuff I capped my half doors with, I got it from the hobby shop in Charlotte when I was up there.

Had a good time out at the river with the guys. My windshield finally gave up and shattered and broke off on a rollover. Also not sure whats up with my servo but its making some funky noises now.

new foams made my tires 1/2" taller, which when you are talking about a 4" tire means a lot. They dont wrap as bad and roll under in turns. It was night and day while crawling.
