Will the hard top still work with the cut doors?


The doors are just wrangler halfies, the hard top would porb still go on it but im hard on **** it would be in pieces after one trip, and not to mention it gets real top heavy with that up there.
:beers:

Just threw that time out there I figured I'd head that way after work !

Saw the rig in person at BigRock. Nice build. Really wanted to go back out and wheel with you, but it was probably a good thing I headed for home, or I am sure it would have been late getting home.

Hopefully we'll meet again and do some wheelin. I'd like to see the rig in action.

jwend 06-03-2011 10:55 PM

OK so the next stage has started..... four link the front, full hydro, fox shox, and all the other goodies.... the old jeep drive train is getting sold along with the propane to make room for the new 5.3 reverse manual T400 and atlas (maybe atlas) combo...pics and updates will follow all work is being preformed at red9 fab check it out! It will be a beast!!:evilgrin::thumbup:

yellowjacket 06-04-2011 09:03 AM

So what limitations does ur jeep have right now that ur hopin to make better? Seemed
Pretty capable as it is

jwend 06-04-2011 05:04 PM

it was very capable..... no real limit that made me do it.. didn't like the front approach angle.... hate having a manual and i like HP... and i was needing to build something so i did haha.. SOOOOO to answer yer question i just have a fabrication problem... because the thing was fine the way it was!

humpy 06-05-2011 09:00 PM

jwend 06-05-2011 10:05 PM
