Red Knight 15 build

[Red Knight15]

This may be a slow boring build thread, but I'm going to do it anyway. [emoji482] I give myself 6 month head start on parts before I started thread.


Trade day for my old 2 door.

Here she is at home 100% soccer mom mode [emoji20]. Could have took some parts off my old one, but I going to try my best to use all made in the USA after market parts. Well at least the important stuff anyway.

Ok first mod is chop that stupid bumper , with help from my shop Buddy.

Much better, I put end caps on it later.

Rubicon express budget boost and Evo CB antenna bracket from Brown Santa.

I need to get that Evo skid.

That's a Rustys offroad skid, but they are all pretty much the same. I can't believe Jeep doesnt put on it from factory , that's a ah shit moment waiting to happen.
