Default What a PIMA PJ Rails

So this pass weekend i decided to start a long list of mods.

1. install PJ rails
2. bedline all hinge parts
3. add spacers to me 2.5" coil lift
4. add jks discos
5.add tf lca

well lets just say im not freaking good mood PJ rails are a pain in may ...
the directions where not all that great. sh*t they dont even say what bolt goes where. I started on my drivers side and only half the bolt line up. the other ones are slightly off just enough to make it along job. Im half tempted to take em off and bondo the hole and buy a different set of rails I feel like i wasted my weeknd plus my jeep looks likes its been at a chop shop. I only have this weekend to get everything. I love the way they look but install is a b*t*h. deep breaths and count to ten. I feel better now.

the PJ rails are awesome once installed but yeah, they can be a pain. ask jackmac, he ended up throwing his across the garage before calming down and getting them on.

with only half the bolts tight it feels strong as hell. I might not even worry about the rest

Call and talk with Robert at Purejeep he can explain everything to you. Just know how strong they are once installed.
