Transformation of the 95 YJ

[CrazyDuck]

YJ looks awesome dude!

What a great build man.

Thanks it has been a year in the making. It's mainly the wife's but I did all the work and wrenching on it.

This is a really solid build. Nice work!

Thanks. Were planning to go to ouray, Colorado and to Moab in our jeeps in a year or so. So there's still plenty to do on this little Jeep. Then there's even more planned for my TJ.

update with some recent photos.

Just put the new ion alloy wheels and 35's on.


My wife said she needed more light on the trails. So I added some light to her pillar mounts with custom made brackets out of aluminum.



Also installed a single row lightbar up front for her.




Hers and mine



Since we put the 35's you can't tell that she has almost 5.5 inches of lift







And there is still a huge list of things she wants done to her Rebel YJ.

Looks good. Ive had 3 YJs in the past and I still debate about getting another one for a playtoy only build. I want a buggy bad but would still like a cab and be out of the elements if wanted to.

Wow, your YJ is awesome! And the two rig household is inspiring.

Looks really good man. I miss my old yj. Those things can take a beating

It's been a little while since I updated this. Here's my wife being a little rough on the old YJ. At one point she had both front wheels off the ground.

I made a few changes to the jeep for her.



Before y'all ask. No we did t go down tire size and change wheels. Our buddy was considering going up to 35's but wanted to be sure that he had clearance and his mileage would change much. So we swapped her wheel for a week so he could see how they performed.




What a difference.





Great use of a hilift jack^^^^




Very nice stance.

Poser pictures.
















So y'all Are pretty much up to date.

Yeah she's still rocking the 35. After Christmas I'm picking up a 44 to put in it.

Did you check out the 8.8? I blew the 35 in my old yj and went with the 8.8. I got mine through ECGS. Good little axle. Same width and bolt pattern as YJ too. Can get them cheap at junk yards.
