Absolutely. Everything I do I realize it opens up even more more. 😂. Like you said just need to stick too it and work on it a bit everyday. Thanks for watching!
Someone makes a big clearance body mount that welds on in place of the factory mounts. And I think it gives you about a one inch body lift without using the pucks. I think Barnes is the company that makes the mount but I'm not positive. Probably would be a better alternative than modifying the floor near the gas pedal.
Thanks. I’ll have to check those out. And that’s what I’m thinking too. I also might move that top link over on the passenger side. Lots of different options still.
It’s a lot of sheet metal work but you could build a new floor over top of the floor you have now. Then you would have a level smooth floor both in front and back. The pedals can be shortened to accommodate the higher floor. It will cause your roll cage to be that much higher but it will look so much cleaner than a bunch of caps sticking up covering links. Otherwise your foot will keep getting caught or at least be very uncomfortable. It’s looking great so far. It really has a great stance to it.
Good point. That’s definitely an option for sure. I’m really worried about that top 3rd link. I might end up moving it to the passenger side. But I’m definitely liking the look of it right now. Would be nice to get it a couple more inches lower. But I think I’m within the ballpark!
So technically, this is a TJ-6, correct? LJ would have some additional length behind the wheel well, and the wheel base is longer than an LJ. When my project Brutlity is done, making my TJ into a TJ-6 is the next mission.
Yes sir. It’s technically a TJ-6. Or a stretch TJ to LJ body length. 😂. And this has been a fun project so far. Hopefully you have fun when you get to yours!
@Ohio_offroad_adventures it will be early 2025, I'm currently building a YJ Brute overlander, fingers crossed it will be done before October for our trip to the Rubicon.
This Jeep is gonna be sick once it’s all done!! 🔥🔥🔥
Can’t wait!
Looking good, enjoying the build! Thanks for sharing and go BUCKS!!
Thank you so much. GO BUCKS!!
It’s looking great. Can’t wait to see the front clip on it.
Thanks man! We should have to on in the next couple weeks so we can figure out the mount hoops for the coilovers!
WOW! That is a undertaking 100% But get a little done everyday and it will be something for sure!

Looking good Josh. It's good to see Ashley, too. She's as beautiful as ever. And you Josh, no comment. 😅
Thanks Dallas. And I completely agree with that statement!! 😂

Looks sweet!
Thanks man!
Making progress!!
Looking good !!
Slowly but surely. Thanks!

My Drivers' side floor is very similar. I had to make clearance for my drive shaft there, I think you'll be ok.
Good to know. I’m hoping it will be fine too. But probably won’t know for sure till I get seats.
Fun stuff. Im getting ready to stretch the rear on my LJ to put me at 111 for now. Front half this winter and end up around 114-115
That’s awesome!! I would feel bad cutting up a real LJ the way I’ve cut this TJ up. 😆. What size tire you going to for your LJ?
@@Ohio_offroad_adventures currently 43 but may go back to a 42 if MT will come out with their Baja Boss?
@@rocklanderoffroad I’ve heard that the Mickeys boss MT should be coming soon! I might try to grab a set too!
@@Ohio_offroad_adventures genright actually has /had some for sale, About $650 a tire. Should hit major retail stores by summer they say
Looking good
Thank you!

@@Bighorn_built that’s sounds like an awesome build man! I would love to build something like that. Maybe the next project. 😆
I measured once, cut three times and it was still too short! Lol
🤣 😆
its Missouri not Mississippi !
Ahhh Dangit!! Completely screwed that up! 🤦♂️
@@Ohio_offroad_adventuresyou had it right. Definitely Mississippi
