Well Guys I have been lurking for awhile and finally signed up. Life has been to busy to do much besides work. Go kart racing has won out on Thursday nights for the Meet & Greet for most of 2010. Last year my wife and I wanted to buy a jeep to do some offroading when we are not doing the car shows to promote my business. I was displaying my pick up at SEMA and thought it would be cool to also show off her Jeep. So we did some work to get it worthy to be shown. I own Ironworks Speed & Kustom here in Bakersfield, so we made a few custom parts ( Light bar mounts and tube fenders, etc ) and installed the majority of all the parts inhouse with the help of Pat @ Shocker Since he has 2 post lift.

Here is picture of the our Jeep in full mall crawler status and pictures of my pickup truck I have been dragging all over the country.

Seen your jeep around town, and ironically enough, at the mall :lol3: .

That is a kick ass light bar. Are you ready to start wheeling it yet?

My wife drives that Rig to work everyday, so I'm sure it has been to the mall quite a few times for shopping.

I have some extra light bar mounts laser cut if you need one. They are easy one you cut one.

Thanks guys. the tube fenders are pretty slick. But they are super time consuming to build. I might make batches if people preordered them. There are some things I would change but the bead rolled recesses look pretty cool. And the front shape is really sexy the way the tube flows into the front bung.

The truck we featured in Truckin Magazine and has gotten quite a few awards in the past year.

The jeep has been out in the rocks quite a few times. We have run freeway ridge a few times,miller jeep trail and nightmare gulch and last chance canyon. Someday I will get to build my rock buggy. :suprise:
