Usually wheel 2 tracks, trails and sand dunes. There isn't much for rock around here.

Here's a pic of it before the axle swap

It gets me from my apartment to class just fine, little out of place in the city but it all works out when the detroit locks up. Real attension getter :mrgreen:

Sold it to a buddy of mine in 2008 and he's still beating the hell out of it today with no changes to it.
 
@JIA

Looks like you are running 35s and D44s on it. Did you do much else to it besides a lift kit? I am trying to do a TJ for around 10k, including the TJ itself. I've already gotten some help from pirate4x4 and am looking for a little more info.

Also, do you is it a DD? Other than that, that thing looks great.
 
Those aren't D44s. :lol:

They're Tera 60s with ARBs 35-spline chromoly shafts up front, custom set of 35-spline Moser shafts in the rear.

Tires are 37s.

2001 5.3L V8, TH350, built Dana 300 flipped for d-side drop

The hood, grille, windshield, fuel tank, and tailgate are stock.

Everything else has been cut/modified/replaced.

Yeah, it's a daily driver.

10k? I've got around 15k in mine total and its been through "changes" since it was first complete. You could a wrecked yj or something for cheap, put coil springs and gas shocks on it, find a D44 put chromoly's in it, find a set of 38's or 39.5's mount on some wheels (non beadlock) find a nice little motor and whatnots and you could have a pretty sweet wheeler for around $8,000. If you did it right. "thumbsup"
