Cheers, It's similar haha not quite as bright though.

We aren't sure what colour it's going to end up yet, it will depend on the chassis it goes on. Thinking the original red one though, I really like the colour it is now but we want it to be an original colour that matches what it came out of the factory as.

It's almost there! Made quite a bit of progress since the last update.

Lots of little jobs to get it finished, more wiring etc. 2" lift springs fitted for now until I make the new YJ conversion I'm designing.

The new front bumper has been welded up with some nice led lights recessed in, 5mm mounts doubled up to 10mm for the recovery points.

Some 33x10.50 silverstone Xtremes :rockin: when he rolled them out I wasn't sure they were going to fit :lol: most 33s measure 32.5"....these are 33.5" and they just fit with the lift, might have to do some fettling once the YJs are on with the added flex though.

Mean and moody. Those orange wheels set it off a treat.

Looking good, what's happening to his trayback then? I presume we are talking about the same Adam here!

That looks awesome, almost makes me glad I didn't buy it off you before, I'd have never had it looking as good as this!!!

Been a long build but I'm super happy with it and Adam aka Nylonadmiral is as well.

We do have some more plans lined up in the future but time to get it on the road for him to enjoy in the meantime
