The building of "StormTrooper"

Well, went to corral canyon yesterday and ran sidewinder. Planned to run a few more trails but i was sick since the morning and got progressively worse as the day went on. Jeep performed great and had no issues crawling up anything at 12psi in 4low

And a few shots of the damage of the day, worst being the tire carrier. I came off a rock and landed on the driver side lower carrier mount

at least it doesn't rattle anymore!

Quick fix, torched it, hammered it, and bent it back in place...sort of... Then shot it with some rustoleum bed liner

Got my artec truss and nitro sleeves from rebel off road and decided to piece it together to get a look at it

Nitro sleeve going in on the short side of the axle. Does anybody know how much the sleeve is supposed to stick out after being hammered in?

Got a few things done yesterday:

Mounted my rigid D2 hyperspot from northridge on my windshield

Took my previous windshield lights (combat led driving pattern) on my rear frame rail

Sweet man, I love all the lights I have on my rig. Makes for night driving on lonely highways much safer in my opinion. Plus when dickbags flash their lights at me when I only have my low beams on I can flash a pair of LEDs and warn em more's a-comin' if they do that again! Lmao

Yes, lights are by far one of my favorite mod to date. I try not to blast people with lights unless they really deserve it but most people do around Orange County

Oh trust me, the people I flash/damn near blind deserve it. I like to think I'm not an asshole but piss me off and see how quickly the switch flips lol

Wanna sell your tire carrier? No interested in the skins but I'll take the carrier if we can make a deal.

Unlikely. I'm considering selling the entire jeep and starting fresh with a rubicon but that's also unlikely. I'll let you know though! Your stock carrier finally ruin your tailgate I saw?

Not completely. But saw it was for sale and figured you might want some of your money back for the carrier.
 
Well.. Time for a little update.
Had a blast at Big Bear Forest Fest, can't wait for next year!


I traded my white Jeep in and downsized but not for long
