    75 cj5

It's a month and a half over due and still not done, finally just went and got it so I can drop it off elsewhere. The rear frame still needs to be fixed as you can see in the photo...

    108" looks to be the sweet spot, just waiting on brackets for the links and everything will start getting attached. Ordered some PRP seats and will also be doing an entire new cage in the process which will include seat relocations to allow for sliders and more leg room. Sent from my iPhone...
