OK, here's where i am. 2 rockers finished 1 on, 2 fenders built 1 on, passengerside comp cut, i just got my rci fuel cell in the mail, and i'm just waiting on the pump and fittings/line, i need the cell in to be able to comp cut drivers side, and i just got the BTF rear strech kit in the mail. i'm going to get xj leafs at the meet and greet, i've just ordered new bushings all around, and i just picked up a set of 1978 dana 60's, i have to keep the 4.10 gears for now because i can;t afford new gears, i bought new calibers for the front, and i've pieced together a rear disc brake conversion. i'll get pics up as soon as i find my camera

OK, i finally got some pictures online so i will keep updating as it goes on.  the yj as is  comp cut for the BTF stretch, and LED's  RCI 15 gallon fuel cell bolted down waiting on straps, and a couple more fittings   here is the rear axle partly painted up and i did away with the old crappy drums and set up some discs, did some research and did a disc conversion out of NAPA for about $220 instead of the $800 most companies want for the conversion  and last here is my 1978 d60 front, bitch and a half to find, but it bolts right up to my rig I just got the BTF stretch kit in and as soon as i have the rest of the parts it's get welded in. |

I really never understood what jeep was thinking when they made the renegade edition. But it seems like you are saving it and making it a decent vehicle.  |
