The $4000 Jeep TJ project

[Slowhand]

I don't generally care much for Jeeps, but that high-line fender mod looks fantastic.

sweet jeep!

Looks fun, where did you go?

That was Bridgeport. I like it a little better than barnwell. You can see where you're at and theres an open valley to play around in. Barnwell is a little more wooded and you smash your shit into trees more often.

also what year is it? i don't recall seeing that posted

It's a 2001 model year.

congrats on the build cj, looks like it's a lot of fun. the fact that you are only in it for 7 and a half is pretty badass too!

I took it wheeling today. Had a good time.

Those stupid 10" lifts are reserved for running over strippers in parking lots.

Now that's funny!

I've gotta say it again, the highline fenders mod with stock flares is what make it look perfect. The guys that run the tube fenders or flat fenders just look funky.

Did body work on hood/fenders and completed the high-line mod. Fenders are now 3" higher than factory. I have to relocate everything in the engine bay, it was kind of a hassle, but it was worth it. moving the fenders 3" higher caused them to bow upwards, which I had to cut the supports and reweld them to keep them level to the ground. This caused the fenders to fold as you can see in the above pics. I worked the metal out and got it smooth where they meet the grill, so there isn't an ugly crease there anymore. Got the big dents out of the hood (it was pretty fucked up), but left a few in there - it is an off-road vehicle.




And for the first time ever.. my jeep is all one color. Goodbye roll over damage!

i have to do this to mine. i really like the way it looks. you did a great job!

Looks great...really missing my cj7 right now.

I personally like the way Jeep TJ's look, so I didn't want to ruin it with some ugly tube fenders. Today in the parking lot another guy who has a lifted TJ came up to me and asked why I lifted it another 3". I told him I didn't, his mind was blown. Gotta keep that low center of gravity if you actually plan on wheeling it. Those stupid 10" lifts are reserved for running over strippers in parking lots.

Funny you say that because I'm making them now (and I'm serious). I'm mounting my SBR .300 BLK rifle to the ceiling console with a quick disconnect pull-away mount.

Full of win

Looks good but where are the gun mounts?

looks great man. you've done well with the mods. if i had to nitpick, i'm not a fan of the front/rear bumpers. i think the TJ's look best with uber minimal bumpers, like psc BFH style bumpers.

I hunt with this jeep so I need wide large bumpers to keep saplings and branches from getting me hung up and breaking off things. And, for the price I paid for them, I couldn't turn it down.
