Platinum Member Nobodycares Posted August 4, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted August 4, 2016 Thanks Stewart! I'm delighted with it, just a bit frustrated that I spent so much money on Land Rover products over the years, until I realised what Jeeps can do. Having said that I've just about emptied the coffers on this Jeep...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Tony Bennett Posted August 27, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted August 27, 2016 Thanks Stewart! I'm delighted with it, just a bit frustrated that I spent so much money on Land Rover products over the years, until I realised what Jeeps can do. Having said that I've just about emptied the coffers on this Jeep...... I wish there was a "like" button as this post would have got one from me, of course such a thing limits conversation, the whole point of a forum, hence there isn't one. I am picking up my brand spanking, just out of the box, 4 door JKUR from Westaways in Northampton on Thursday 1st. I now see the challenge that lies before me and presumably I will have to "pull a Bank Job" Thursday afternoon once I have bought it, will it be fast enough as the getaway car please? :icon_e_biggrin: On a more serious note, you have set the bar very high with your mods, do you have a list posted on here please?

Platinum Member Volant165 Posted August 27, 2016 Platinum Member Share Posted August 27, 2016 Hi Tony, I think quite a few photos etc. On PB Customs page as well as that gem was built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Member Nobodycares Posted August 28, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted August 28, 2016 Tony, I'm about 20 minutes from Northampton, if you want to meet up for a coffee when you pick up your Jeep, you can have a look at the mods on mine, and decide which ones you might fancy.

Platinum Member Nobodycares Posted August 29, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted August 29, 2016 Tony, sent you a PM. I'm in the wrong direction for you, but I'm free Thursday, so can pop over to Northampton. Andrew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Member Nobodycares Posted December 2, 2016 Author Platinum Member Share Posted December 2, 2016 Before my Jeep arrived, I had read comments about a Jeep build never being finished. I though 'Pah, I know exactly what I want, and once that is done, it'll be sorted, and I'll be happy'. How wrong I was...... So the latest stage of development are wider arches, and a Pioneer Avic-F80DAB stereo with reversing camera. I felt the wider arches were required as, in mud, the sides of the Jeep, including side windows very quickly became plastered, dramatically reducing visibility. The arches haven't completely solved the problem, I think mud flaps would help (but I know they'd get ripped off sooner or later), but it's a big improvement, and brings the Jeep within the law...... Here's a few pics of the latest upgrades. I would say that we are now finished, but I've learnt that is probably never gonna happen......

I imagine the wider arches would look stupid on my stock wheel and tyre but I do like the look of them. Where did you source them please and are there alternative styles?

Where did you source them please and are there alternative styles? Tony, They look like Bushwacker fender flares. Not sure where Andrew got them. There are other style replacements available, Alex (Buzz Racing) has just done some flat fenders from Nemesis Industries on his blue JKR.

Andrew, can you please take a pic of your new flares where they meet the snorkel entry? Just wondering how much cutting was required. Thanks!
