It's finally starting to take shape. I have a few things left to finish up, but they are relatively easy in the big scheme of things:

i am using this thread kind of like a tracker, so there are several of these lists floating through here........keeps me .....and i can't lose it in the mess that has become of my garage!

Going to Off Road Evolution to get the following done:
- 5.38's
- C gussets
- Front and rear control arm skids
- 44 magnum tube sleeves
- JKS front track bar brace
- JKS rear track bar brace(don't think this will work with the new RE rear track bar relocation bracket...may be up for grabs shortly)
- install front and rear driveshafts
- install RE drag link......have to ream out stock fittings to 3/4"...don't have a reamer and they are like 100 bucks....cheaper to have ORE do it while it's there.

Before going to Linex:
- hood, windshield wiper cover, complete the other 3 doors
- finish scraping out insulation on tub floor

- Line-X inside...thinking about doing the whole lower portion on the sides of the tub and doors, maybe a straight line from bumper to bumper......similar to a two tone paint job, but with linex...grille and entire tailgate is getting Linex'd too......

After Linex:
- OR-F rear tire/can carrier
- Install grill, front bumper(still need to chop it)
- install all interior

LOVE it, but the shiny wheels don't fit the theme.
OD green those and the arms too and it's there!

This jeep is bad ass

As others have stated this is a sweet jeep.
In my opinion don't do the linex at all on the outside.....
At least not where you are talking about. At the
most I would do the grill.

My 2 cents worth

my thought process IRT the Linex on the lower panel of the tub, was more for protection from rocks and debris........lots of members have issues with the stock rubi sliders not having the coverage to stop rocks from pelting the side of the Jeep.

I am thinking of doing just the rocker panel of the tub (none on the doors).....I think it will look like the Evo rock skins

Any other inputs on this?

yea just do the rockers that will be alot nicer looking and still protect

i believe that would look pretty good as well. my biggest thing on the way you originally wanted to line x straight across was that i thought it would look funny if you ever went doorless.

keep the pics coming.....im in love with your jeep. the "boss" told me that as soon as i finish the kitchen cabinets i too can paint the jeep. i'm gonna go with coyote tan.

Unfortunetely I have to take several days off from working on the jeep.

Brother is having surgery, so I am going to go hang out with the family for a few days.....

I will post updates prolly early next week.

No pics for this post, but they will be soon!

The jeep is finally at the Linex shop, should be done tomorrow sometime....

Once back from Linex, I'll be putting back in the interior...and then it'll be off to OffRoad Evolution for the 5.38 gears, alignment and axle reinforcements.....

Still have the ORF carrier and the OBA that I will need to put on, but most likely those are going to be waiting until after I get back from training in VA....

I WILL POST PICS ASAP after it's back from LineX
