Mark, whats left to do on the willys? No money sucks for sure. I took a second (part time) job just to try and earn money to buy parts. The xj looks great. Hope to wheel with you and your dad someday. My son and I wheel together too. We've had a lot of fun.

the big $$$$ stuff left on mine is,

steering
atlas 32 spline upgrade
F/R drivelines
brake calipers 4

plus all the nickel & dime stuff that kill ya!

I want to have my dads done soon becuase we want to plan a trip to moab this fall.

My dad built some bad a$$ frame stiffners for in the engine compartment where we are going to mount the air shock hoops, I will post pics on Friday of them and the rest of the new progess.

here are the front frame stiffners 2 pieces of angle cut and bent and then a piece of 3/16" plate to tie it all together.
