    I figured Id share my dash build.. its actually going into a YJ but I love the flat dashes of the CJ
    Its a DoubleDfab peice. Dan is a great guy to work with. I sent him a inquiry and quickly recieved a phone call and CAD drawing.

    Heres how it all lstarted. I had a blank CJ dash that I picked up some time ago so I bought some gauges to go into it.

    Finally got it back from the powder coaters.. they did an excellent job, primered it with a high zinc primer then coated it with a textured black finish.

    Double D is great. I had him make my CJ 5 dash. Looks great.

    I like it. Like the speaker cutouts. Way cool on that. They do a great job on dashes.

    I was able to get the wiring I the cab ready for the dash today.. If all goods well Wednesday ill get all the gauges wired and give it a test fit.. I'd like to get it fitted so when it's painted I don't need to monkey around the inside of it to wire it up..
