Guess I need to start my build thread. Not good with naming things so my build's name is pretty obvious.

Sold my Toyota Tundra and picked up my 1st Jeep, 2008 JKU. It had a lift and wheels and tires. Picture is when I brought it home.

Added a spare tire mount. It's going to be a tight fit mounting the 37" inch spare.

Stuck in 4 high and shifter was loose. Took the console apart and saw the linkage bushing missing. I temporarily put it back on so I could shift it back. What looks like cookie crumbs is actually what was left of the bushing. 1431648236877.jpg
New bushing from dealership.1431648275117.jpg
Installed.
