This is one sweet ride!!! 
I should like to get my hands on one of those tops. I like how it comes down right behind the back doors. I think that would look good on a regular JKU. Just run a dust cover that matches up with top or something to keep the elements out.
If its possible to get a top like this, please let me know!

ASSEMBLY HAS STARTED! With the frame all welded up we had a chance to check all the clearences before we get it all back together. we got a chance to take a few pictures as it went:
1st- bare frame after the last parts were final welded.
2nd- chassis & suspension at full compression
3rd- hanging in the hoist at full droop
Next step will be getting the motor in, turbos on, intercooler piping run, fuel lines hooked up, body back on and some wiring, then we'll see how it runs.

Before we dropped the motor back into the frame for the last time before MOAB we took the time to just do some final checking of the suspension cycle to make sure nothing comes into contact when flexed out.
We are very impressed with the final result. 44 inches of clearence under the front tire when resting on the bump stops and there is still great angle on the portals.

While we get everything installed and loaded up for MOAB does anyone have any spots open on runs that we may join in on during the week? We are going to have Rattletrap as well as a TJ on 35's that will be running together so keep that in mind.
