Bill's 1 Ton TJ Build

<< < (9/30) > >>

Bill3753:
I probably should have updated that...

Wheels are now going to be some 16x10 Steels I ordered from a custom wheel shop to get the backspacing I wanted.

Tires are Toyo Open Country MT's in 38x14.5x16.

I plan to high line the fenders and keep the 7" Flares.  When I'm done, with the wheel backspacing I ordered, everything will clear the steering and make me about 9-10" wider then I am now.  My current set up is 100% covered by the flares and about 75" wide, so when I'm done I'll be sticking out of them by about 4-5" a side.  I'll probably build a removable mud flap like the ones Genright sells for it as well.

Swagger:
ETA to job complete?   ;D ;D

Bill3753:
Goal is to have it complete for the April 30th trail run.

It's a lot of work, but I'm confident at this point I can have it done by then.

Swagger:
What lift Did you decide to run. The Clayton w/ 5" stretch. I'm looking to that one to but cant decide if i wanna run that one or the 7" stretch double triangulated system. Choices, choices...   :-\

skibum:
Thats a very rust free jeep noticing by the pics. You picked a good jeep to start this type of project on. Im looking forward to seeing this project done. Keep up the great pics of your progress. This thing is going to be a moster. You did say 37's before & now your going 38's. Now thats just going to be freakin awsum. Can't wait!!!
