| This is where I was at after I had replaced the floors....time to Herculine. |
| This was taken after the 2nd coat, which is a must....the 1st coat does good, but you gotta have the 2nd coat to have complete coverage. |
| After caulking around the edge of the floor of the bed and wall and then Herculining, its hard to tell that I even replaced the floor at all. |
| The transision between the old floor and the new floor seems to flow much more naturally with the Herculiner applied. |
| I just haven't figured out what I am gonna do with the doors yet; still thinking about it, but I do have a few options that I am milling over. By the way, I did the under coating with 1 coat, and I did the interior with 2 coats, and I used about 1 3/4 gallons; I have just enough to do some touch up work when I need to. |
| Trying to clean that black crap off my hands, and trying to come back to my senses...that stuff is pretty strong. |

| Tires showed up on Feb. 15, 2002 (surprised me) I thought they looked good, but I will probibly add a 1" or 2" body lift for a little more clearence in the fender-wells. |
| Lookin' a little better now. |
| My herculiner all dry now. |
| A little bit of size perspective. |
| Ordered my tires from National Tire and Wheel. The tires are Super Swamper TSL SX's that are 35x15x15.5 mounted on 15x12's Eaton Black Monster Wheels, and I did get 5 tires and wheels -- all exactly the same. |
| This is my rear driveshaft that arrived a day before the tires did. I ordered it from Arizona Driveshaft and Axle. It is a standard slip spline with a CV at the top end and a standard 1310 U-joint at the other. They used 2 1/2" diameter tubing. You also have to order the CV yoke to be compatable with the CV, to be installed into the transfer case. Now that I am pretty sure that the CV will fit into the front (after seeing this one in person) I can order the front shaft. With stock springs, my rear shaft has an operating length of 40 1/2 " and the front will be 24 3/8" |

| I picked up both of these seats for $65 at my local used parts yard (junk yard). They came out of a Dodge Neon and the tracks move nicely and the lean-latches seem to be tight. I'll see how good they will mount up within about a week, when my roll bar is installed. |
| This is the 2nd shipment I recieved from D & C Extreme. This pallet contains my roll bar, drop draglink, and my Rancho 9000 shocks. |
| This is the roll bar and draglink un-wrapped. |
