Ha ha Scott I bet its not number one priority. Looks like you got the bug back and getting a fair bit of progress on your SJ. Cant wait to see it on the road if we all get to meet up this year

No more pics at the moment but progress is being made 8-)

started work on the rocksliders for the cage again and got chopping on the front arches to maximise uptravel! damn I didn't realise how much more i needed to cut out since moving the front axle forwards :lol: I've gotta re-do the headlights again and move them forwards 15-20mm :bawling:

Have fun chopping it up again.

You going to have to cut into the headlight housing then. My VL stops dead inline with the back of it.

I got a bit carried away with the angle grinder tonight :brows: I decided it was probably going to be easier building completely new inner arches than modify the old ones more.

This is with standard height bumpstops.

Yeah if I had to cut anymore out there wouldn't be much point keeping the font clip :lol:

Time to cut out the back arches again next, I'm going to build them from scratch as well. Plan is to cut out enough so that if I ever want to run 35s all ill need to do is lower the bumpstops :rockin:
