Not sure how long of a thread this will be but thought it'd be fun to have one nonetheless.

Found this guy at my mom's house this past week. He's ugly and doesn't have any power, but we're gonna fix him up. It's a TJ body with Bushwacker fender flares and coilovers (not Kings) sitting on some super wide 37s.

First up, remove that weird bar on the back. Probably meant to prevent wheelies, but I'm rock crawling not drag racing and it's killing my departure angle.

Next up, the front bumper. Likewise ugly and killing my approach angle. Unless I'm mowing down mice in a field, it's got to go.
