    dozer jk on 40s. Her owner is Derek. one of our JL core mechanics. He specializes in diesels and turbos, supras and stuff. Real Wrench turning lunatic.

    What he cannot manage to do is work a phone or a cpu. So when I see him post his facebook stuff, im going to just rip it off and put it here.

    They are nice tube doors. Good for being different from the crowd. AND I love that they have some storage.

    I want to hear about what he did with his axles to prevent explosion of said parts under off-road stresses!

    She's a brute, but I have never seen her wheel. She was bought already built, and the builder didn't do a marvelous job, so we have been trying to get her corrected.

    Here is a step toward her correction.

    She has a 3.5 RK lift, and a 1 inch body lift. No rear sway bar.

    These are the new improved joints from RK that are about to go in. We need to tighten her up, as she is terrifying to drive on the highway.
