This is actually the 2nd time for me to rebuild this Jeep. I did a frame on restoration in 2002. That one included rebuilt engine, T-5 trans and T-case, new painless harness, new OEM gauges, upgraded steering gear, upgrades brake booster, used Acme full hard top, full bed lined interior, one piece axle upgrade in the AMC 20, SOA lift and new 3.73 gear with limited slip in rear and a basic paint job.
This time I’m doing a frame off, blasting and bed lining the underside of the tub, blasting and coating the frame, replacing all brake and fuel lines, new Xtreme Hardtop, LS/4L60 swap, truss the AMC 20, add traction bar and get a top quality paint job including factory style decals and pin stripes.
The new Xtrem hard top is on hand and the first real progress has been made with new bumpers and tire carrier being completed.
This is where this build starts.
Fresh power on hand.

The bumper parts you likely don’t recognize are the receptacles for the Blue Ox two bar I will use to flat tow the Jeep behind a motor home.
