i was looking at that build..almost thought about makeing a set like that but i like the tube design better....it'll look better with the fenders and bumper that are in the design. i'll have them mounted up tonight to get the third mount and then it'll be time to take them on the trails and test them out lol

I LOVE my Scotty built rails ... they have saved the day quite a few times! Boys down at Bethal Maine Jeep Jam were VERY interested in the design/install last year; all kinds of good 'ole boys crawling around & under the jeep taken pictures and asking about the fab.

it's been a busy week but i've finally got one rail complete and mounted. the other one just needs some powder and it'll be ready. i did them in a textured powder to help with grip a little and it wont show the small scratch's to bad...the rock digs and dents...that's a different story lol

finally got both rails mounted, looks pretty good considering there not store bought lol....havn't had a chance to test them out on the trails yet, but its comming. I did end up putting a 3rd mount and connected it to the frame, i don't think i have to worry to much about them, now it's time to start on the fenders lol

just finished putting in the 4" rough country lift from pecks. sittin nice and tall...from the bottom of the skid plate i have 14" of clearance...that is after putting a couple km's on it to make sure things are in there proper place and not going to fall out on me lol. then i added a rough country performance stabalizer, went on easy. looks much better then the factory...was it worth it...hard to say yet...but the bling factor is there lol

bigger rubber for sure...havn't decided how much bigger yet...35's have a nice sound...but drop some flat fenders and i might be able to tuck some 36's or 37's in there...with ofcourse, new front axles lol

Lookin good. I would not going bigger than 35's on a 2 door. I just put 37's on my unlimited and I had to do a lot of wheel well cutting. The only reason I went with 37's is to help with the break over angle. Break over sucks on a 4dr. A 2 dr with 35's is great. it is a good set up.
