    I also got mine from Willys overland, They were a dream to deal with and I set the body on my frame and it it lined up perfect. I wouldn't do it any other way. Lucky for me it was only a 3 hr drive away. I actually got really luck because he had just received a returned tub and gave it to me for an amazing price. I would deal there again in a heartbeat.

    Crap, I bought a body from Willys Overland, wasn't planning on stripping all the primer, but I guess I'm gonna have to now.

    How come you think you need to strip it down? I was initially worried but so far I have not seen any problems with my exterior paint, underside painted with POR15, Raptor Liner on the inside. Sure it was prepped, sanding, scotchbrite, but it wasn't "stripped" to bare metal.

    After watching that video, for me I'd hate to do a lot of work, spend a lot of money, and a year or two later watch it come up in sheets. It'd be much easier to bead blast it off now why I have a booth set up for it.
