Pretty freakin close. Nice!
Well while I've been waiting for everything to come together I've been slowly working on tearing my jeep apart lol.
Removed driver side plastic
Took out sub
Used dry ice and rubbing alcohol mixture on the sound dampening
Used a dead blow mallet and a heavy duty putty knife to pop it up
Stripped down some wiring harnesses to what's "needed"
Just need to finish prepping wires and seat belt holes then on to monstaliner
If all goes well maybe even finish this weekend :thumb:

Putting in a ton of work and time. Looks like you're making good progress though.
If it looks like I'm making progress, good. It sure doesn't feel that way, haha. It's a strange feeling taking my entire jeep apart only to "rebuild" it shortly after. Since I'm going to re-run all my internal harness I have to just leave it sitting there until after the body comes off for the swap. I can't wait until it's all finish :thumb:
So exciting!!!! I've literally been going through withdrawals without a jeep to work on!! Living through others right now. Keep the posts coming.

Oh the sound deadening material is a pain. That dry ice I know helped a tone. At least you didn't do it the hard way. Looks good!
With a hydraulic lift :yup:
Oh man it feels so good to get it this far but I feel like mile 5 out of a marathon, haha.
Man anyone that just chips at it or grinds it down is definitely doing it the hard way lol :yup:

I used a air hammer and it peeled right up. There was a few tiny spots I hit with a angle grinder with 3m pad. I was done in 30 minutes.
Can't wait to see this thing finished. I've been researching a 5.3 swap for future use.
Just about ready
and stuff is starting to show up :thumb:
