Looks good! Those soft 8's are a nice touch.

Can't wait to see it progress. Keep up the good work!

Thanks. I was going to paint the caps black, but I kind of liked the look of a little chrome to offset the black. Next PML. I want to remove my steps by my three year old daughter refuses to let me help her in the car, she has to climb herself. So, I need the steps on there until I can get some shrocks.

So back off about the steps! hahah J/k.

That is true, it doesn't work. Plus, its pretty cool to see it happen. And, she laid under the X while I changed my oil so, she is cool and deserves the steps!

And, I have my old set of rims also. Not sure if I am going to keep them or not.

Just drop your steprails when you plan to go offroading. They are held on by 4 threaded bolts per side and in 15 minutes you're good to go. I used to do it a lot until I began spending so much time offroad that it became pointless to keep putting them on. Go to shrockworks.com and look at the sliders page. He has some pics there of people wheeling with their steprails on and well... it's not pretty.

I say keep your stock rims and wrap them in some good road tread and save your soft 8's for your M/T's. It will save you a lot of treadlife. It's what I'm hoping to do with mine if I have the cash to pay for 2 sets of tires.

Ha! Cool... new user title for me!

Decided to change my avatar back to B.A. Baracus - The father of vehicular modifications. Give B.A. a cutting torch and a pinto and he'll build you the baddest rock crawler around.

Did you ever notice that in every A-Team episode, they were always locked up in a room somewhere that just happened to also store their welding equipment? That's like putting 007 in jail but letting him keep his pen and his watch. Or letting Macgyver keep his swiss army knife and a stick of chewing gum.

I would like to do the BL, but I doubt I ever will. So, my next mods will be Tires, Sliders, Bumpers, but I am pretty happy with it right now. Like I said, my offroading is very limited around here, so the things I do are mainly just for aesthetics. Also, a BL will probably force me to park outside my garage which I would prefer not too. We get a lot of hail, tornados, etc here in the bible belt.
