The ZJ is looking great buddy!  I dig the fearless approach to sheetmetal surgery.  8)

haha sorry raf, the 20' i have left is at phils shop, and will likely stay with him forever until he builds a tube buggy.

seanner, i'm done welding metal to this thing.  its getting heavy lol.  so yes, maybe i'll find some more to cut.!

more crap welded to my jeep. actually its not welded yet.  this is my swing down tire carrier. i will be (ok phill will be) welding a second hitch the onto my hitch 14" to the left, so the tire sits directly behind the driver side.  and it will allow full access to the back.  but ya, basic model. and about 50$ in materials compared to a 1200$ bumper!

Clean, simple, lightweight, and totally functional. I like it!

My only question is why you would put something like that on a ZJ. What with being functional, it doesn't fit in with the theme of your vehicle  ;D

I followed a rainbow out to a garage and found a leprichaun. The rainbow ended in a potted cactus on his porch, but there was no gold :(

:'(  it will hold a 35 ;)

mostly its just for camping. i'm going to get phill to weld a second reciever on there so i can still use my rear hitch for recovery etc.  likely i won't keep it on all the time. but maybe ;)

I did a Google search for "hot trannies" but nothing came up about oil coolers  :o

Worrying too much about mpg with a Jeep is similar to worrying about your sister's virginity. An ok thing to be concerned about but...
