So i decided to swap my axles out so i could have 3.55s instead of 3.07s and also go my hands on some other parts like skid plates hd cross member rear bumper and some other things. figure i make this thread so people could see the work im doing. I have almost finished the rear and ill be moving onto the front soon and skid plates and few other things. more pics soon

I like that rear bumper too. All you need is some 2x2 square tubing and with a little cutting and welding you could build a swing-out. Looks like it was set up with a swing-out at one time. Scott and I built this bumper for my XJ and it turned out really good.

Yes it had one at one point guy said someone stole it or something and its made by Rock Hard. But when i have some money ill buy some metal but will need help making it.

Great bumper.  Nice looking latch setup.  Well done!
