common words when shopping for this sort of stuff..

don't bother with lockers.
**Not hating on your rig, at all!!!*** A liberty is not a good vehicle for building like that. you just have to replace everything to get halfway to what a stock...
I am planning to spray a project i am building right now. I did some research on the rustoleum and played around with some colors and clear.

the rear driveshaft length isnt an issue with the 5 speed and split case.
the TSM e brake option works well, but doesnt fit well. to fit it under the 40, you have to mount it low on the transfer...

Ha ha........sweet ride!!
P.S. i've got a full size van now, aka the "free candy" van
when i did a dual battery setup on a 200, i ended up putting the second battery behind the ARB bumper. I had to make a custom bracket and the location is not ideal(especially if you don't have a...

make sure your timing is right. i mean make sure all the marks are aligned properly on the cams and crank.
otherwise look into exhaust restriction.

look forward to seeing more of the build!
All looks like great work!!!!
keep an eye on the rear upper link mount at the frame. after doing a similar 3 link on the rear of a 4th gen 4 runner, the frame does not hold up to abuse very well....

the windshield seal leak is very common.
Scat procar elite seats are very comfortable and they fit in alot of vehicles

always put the winch on the main battery. the winch does not need to run off of two batteries. it is always a good idea in older vehicles or any thing with an upgraded alternator to run a heavy gauge...
starter draw becomes much larger when it is cold outside. something that alot of people forget to consider when finding fuses/breakers.
when they went with the 5 speed the engine got a bit more power as well.
the 5 speed requires fancy fluid and has no dip stick.
i would go for the 03-04 and up for the nicer interior and...
