Crestwood's BJ

Rear bumper is done! Just needs to finish the rock rails and put the finishing touches on the cage.

Cage is done!

He added braces to strengthen the cage as well as add a mount for the 4 point harnesses. Much better than just a cross bar!

Rock rails are done too

I started to put the 37's on over the weekend. I got the rears on just fine. Then I maxed out my 48" hi-lift trying to get the fronts off the ground

Nothing too crazy. Been waiting on the new transfer case front flange from Marlin. In the mean time, I finished plumbing the ARBs, mounted a mirror to the driver's side windshield frame, and started playing around with wiring the rear brake lights. I'll go out tonight and pick up a flasher rated for LEDs.

I also finally bit the bullet and ordered a rear drive shaft from Tom Woods. I'd rather just have it than deal with all the BS of getting one modified.

It fits!

Took the 42 to the shop to get the exhaust re-routed and the front end aligned

So your going four wheeling next week end right?

 

[crestwood36]

I wish. Still need to get the traction bar done. That's the last thing between me and taking it offroading. I'm taking it to Rob's guy in two weeks.

 

[crestwood36]

Jim did a great job with the traction bar. I'll get some shots when I get back into town tomorrow.

Hillsville was a lot of fun. Nothing too crazy. I had one pucker factor moment going up a steep muddy incline while having to thread it between a couple trees, but overall a good day to break her in.

Even got to do some rock crawling

 

[crestwood36]

She looks good with the windshield down. Thanks again Tom!

Looks cool with the windshield down Matt. Have you played with the winch yet?

 

[crestwood36]

Not yet. I haven't gotten stuck yet. I must not be trying hard enough
