Yesterday's updates. Sorry for being late.. :o

As per the rules and regulations here, The tires shouldn't stick out fender flares. So naturally this was one of the main goals when building Rust Bucket. We test fitted the tires today and I'm very pleased with the results ! :tea:

Not only that but the tires look smaller now which is another added advantage to achieve the "stock looking" Jeep. :D

There is a big gap between the flares and the front tires. But that space will be reduced once the 67LB (30KG) Warn winch is added to the front the front. :)

WE also started with the rear end.

Lots of work have been done. Most of the main electrical parts have been re-wired, the Seat belts were installed, the radiator was done, the transmission was mounted, most of the interior parts were re-fitted, and we test fired the engine again! :D

Hopefully tomorrow we will resume working by finishing the underside of the car, deciding what to do with the skid plate, installing the transfer case, installing the drive shafts, installing all the accessories, and reassembling the Interior. Even then we will not be done and there will still be lots of work to do! :eek:

Nice tyres. I tried to follow you on Wednesday to come and see RB but you zoomed out of WM.

Am absolutely loving the colour, the fenders and tyres look great and the new front bumper is WOW...EEEEEEEEE.

Hurry up RB as we all want to meet you properly.

Sorry, I didn't notice ! :? You should of called ! :mrgreen:

The bumper is from Mopar. but it was designed by American Expedition Vehicles, the same company that designed my Highline kit (the fenders, flares, and bonnet p). but the bumper haven't finished yet. There are few "additions" to it.. ;)

I miss RB the most! :( it is a great truck event without any of the modifications, and it never failed me once (mashaallah)! I can't wait to see how all those modifications affected the Truck. :)

inshallah, it didn't lose any of it's reliability.

I'm still facing issues with wiring the rear LED lights. But at any rates here is today's updates.

We almost finished everything. The only things remaining are the back lights and parts of the Interior.

This picture shows the front after installing the Warn VR-10,000s Winch and the AOR Round LED lights

Here are some closer shots.

The car is finally standing on it's own tires! :HBD:

Here is how much space I have between the 35" tires and the front fender flares. :cool:
