For now it is, but it doesnt see much road use. Im in college in Gunnison, Colorado- super small town, so a bike is my primary way of getting around when its not -30 and snowing like it is during the winter months. I have access to millions of acres of public land 5 minutes in any direction so most of its time is spent off road. |

I love the rear bumper bump ups to the tail lights. Great job with the geometry. |

Nice seeing someone take a stocker and with some hard work come out with a rig like this. If you don't mind me asking do you know how much you have in it now? |

Pretty ballpark, but all the major components= Springs and shocks ~$400 3 link and steering material ~$300 44/60 and complete rebuild on both ~$500 Tires and rims~$400 Bumpers~$150 Sliders~$40 So right around $2k including small misc. stuff, not including the jeep itself. So about $5k all together |
