Ol Jeeps, my buddy Mike is the one that wired that Willys Rockwell buggy. If you want a contact for wiring, I'm sure he'd be willing to wire another buggy, just let me know. It's a clean buggy for sure! Did you build that chassis too?
 
What I would do to do this for a living.. Digging the sami build!

Still need to get with you about the harness bar we talked about briefly as yall were rolling me back over. I'm in the middle of a turbo build now so once I get it together and running right we'll talk.

Sami is on 39.9 tires.

No. Chassis is like 8 years old. Was bent up (and maybe welded?) at Rides years ago when they first opened, or even before!

I thought that door bar looked very Rides/BDB-esque.

Just finished a trim for 37" tire clearance on this awesome 2011 Tacoma! This Tacoma is all Camburg and Fox equipped in the front end, with pre-runner fenders all around. Tubbed the firewall and trimmed the front and upper wheel well. Took a lot of cutting and moving to get the 37" to clear in full stuff!
 
My Weekend project.
Recently sold my TJ and bought this 88'Comanche for a shop truck. Have started to "unstock" it!
Only picture of the stock pic...

Some awesome work! Looks like LS swaps are gonna become second nature at your shop.
