Here awhile back I posted this http://www.xjtalk.com/showthread.php?t=18311&highlight=guess

Well Steve (4.3LXJ) was right

Having the TJ going on 4 years now it's time for a new look. This is part 1 of a possable 3 part change. 2 changes for sure still thinking about the 3rd one.

Now to get started

And for those wondering about the red paint (not blood) a little custom touch

Next stage will come in a month or 2 as I will be going back to work for 21 days later this week.

And so it begins!!! The vents look good, and I'm sure the engine will thank you for the added cooling!!

I think it would have been a cooler story if you would have just told everyone it was blood. Go diesel like Brasscatz said. Either the 5 cyl Mercedes or a 4bt!!
