I like it! :BANANA: :pepper:
There are a few things id probably would do differently....like put those 4x4 and Lost badges on the back where they are from the factory. Just wondering why you chose to spare the tow hooks and antenna of the line-x?

I don't know about the ultra, but my line x would destroy a recovery strap.... and the antenna... IDK

There are a few things that I want to do next. All with the bed liner.

1. The rims!
2. The light bar
3. The basket & cross bars

The basket keeps rusting where the 2 sections come together. That should take care of that problem!

Terry


Wouldn't that throw the rims off balance?

Nothing as long as it doesn't give you flashbacks, or Tina Turner doesn't attack... But then again, if she does, you will be ready!

BTW just noticed your plates... Thank you

The reason for the tow points not being sprayed is just what was stated. I want a smooth surface for tow straps. I thought about doing the antenna but I got to thinking about the weight on the antenna. It would bend back pretty far from the weight when driving. I don't particularly like the LOST plate etc. where they are. They will be coming off.

What was used is not actually Line-X. I forget the name of the stuff. He gets it where he gets all of his body shop supplies. I know of 2 pickups that are going to have the full treatment after they saw mine. I'm gonna have to talk to that boy about some kick back!

I like the look, if you remember what the brand is post it, I'd like to use it on my truck. No way I could talk my wife into the jeep yet. :D

I want one of you guys to go to the dealership and talk about a trade-in just to see the look on the salesman's face. :-)r

I went to the stealership today to get 2 bushing for my front sway bar. When I came out there were 6 employees gathered around the KJ. They admitted that everyone one of them had felt it! :ROTFL: They all liked it to! :D

I'm curious to see how it looks after you and Budke go wheelin at ONP this weekend and to hear how Budke likes his new lift in the sand. Wondering if the brush on the narrow trails will scratch the finish. Does that stuff get harder as it cures?

Yes, it does get harder. It takes about 8 days to fully cure.
