Wasnt sure what to call this build to be honest. Then i remembered what it was like 18 years ago when I bought my first Jeep. I was pooring over all those Jeep catalogs thinking what I would build if i could afford all those top shelf parts I was drooling over. . . so it seemed fitting. LOL I met my friend Buddy through another forum a few years ago. Long story short he had an idea so he bought a brand new Scrambler tub and the first TDK frame. Some 6 years later, a few different shops,and alot of headache later this is what he had. Custom CJ8 with half a poison spyder catalog thrown at it. LOL 6.0 LS motor. First run ATX beadlocks with 39.5 Iroks. I gotta admit these beadlocks are impressive! Evolution offroad suspension with King coilovers. Teraflex axles front and rear. Atlas 3.8 case. Got it to my shop Friday started working on a very LONG list an sorting through boxes of parts. Game plan is just about there. Had a pretty productive day today and had a great time doing it. Some friends stopped by to check it out and lend a hand even my younger brother got dirty today. LOL Going over the frame finishing fabbing brackets,welding,acessing hardware,fuel lines etc. My to do list is 4 pages long and growing but this should be a fun build! Later Sean
