Nah...looks much better now...

Hey, have a question for you - any problems with the unibody construction?? I used to have a stock cherokee but sold it before I built it up....the main reason I didnt build it to wheel, was the lack of a frame.

well its ok as long as you realize it isn't a frame and usually requiring mounting stuff differently

i ordered these on Tuesday which will stiffen up the unibody and will make mounting my flat belly alot easier
