    hey everybody,
    im new here, i am a member of the american jeepster club and then found this forum, looks good.
    my jeep is my first vehicle, got it at 15, and have been working on it for 4 years now. I have learned the glorius "jeepster Fabrication" which is, they dont make a replacement part therefore buy a cj part that is close, then fix to fit! R) R)
    here is a pic of "The General"

    3" body lift. and then tires are 30" but once the funds come up im putting 35"'s on it. when i put the flares on, i planned on putting bigger tires. right now as you can see it looks awkward witht he lil tires on it.

    Awesome job, glad you stuck with it and didn't get discouraged by the lack of replacement parts. My new bumper sticker-Jeepster and Commando, not for the faint of heart 8).
