Took a video of the noise it makes

at first i was like WTF sounds like mud grapplers?

and then i realized. you were recording just that, not a problem lol

 

Since I ruined the powdercoat while welding on my headlight hoops, I got a quote of $250-300 from a local sandblast/powdercoat shop to re-do it...
So I removed the bumper and i'm spraying on a coat of bedliner myself

 

i like your chain hoist

 

spraying with bedliner is totally the way to go....touch it up any time you need to. Looks sweet with the new hoops!

 

Thanks! Makes it a one man job
Chainfall was found in the trash at work. Chain was rusty and the hook was missing the safety latch

Yeah, I think it will be better in the long run.
Thanks!

 

so that makes 4 times pulling off your bumper?

 

Why didn't you weld them on before powdercoating ?

 

That style is the best, regular come-along or cable come-alongs suck in comparison. Plus when i was little it was fun to spin the chain and watch it make shapes.

 

I haven't had time to post but these are the mods I've made over the past couple months. Got new tires BFG Rugged Terrain 285/70/17, Had 5% tint applied all-round, Removed the center cap from my wheels, Mounted a Hi Lift Jack in the bed, Installed a Cherry Bomb Extreme series muffler I wanted something different so I had it routed to come out before the bed.

 

Installed my Rear view lift from ImMrYo. Recieved Ultra gauge in mail, trying to find a mounting location.

 

bought a 1991 jeep cherokee laredo as a daily driver. for college and back and for to work. to save miles on my 2007 radiant Red

 

Thank you for posting that. I've got the 13 as well and I couldn't for the life of me figure out what I was doing wrong to keep them from folding flat when even in the manual it says something about folding flat seats!
Stupid stupid stupid. I want the old ones

 

More than that... Had to come off to weld the back of the hoops

 

Yea they just fold up to the "more in the way" position.

I guess they are supposed to be more comfortable than the older narrow ones that flip forward but I haven't had a single person who doesnt complain just the same with the new seats when. Riding in back. I really dont know why they changed it. It kills what used to be a great space. I am thinking about losing those huge rear headrests too. For the rare ocasion that someone rides back there they are always killing space or view.

 

lol, "close to done"... Looks good.

 

Probably like the new headrests...designed by lawyers

 

^dear mr lawyer..

can i please have my functional, useful rear seats back. I promise i wont sue.

v/r
sad panda

 

Truck looks great!

 

Not today but a few weeks ago I installed OME 886 coils and 90000 struts, Monday I got my LR uca's on and yesterday I had 255/85/16 km2's put on. Gotta say I'm pretty excited how the truck is turning out.
