New member saying hi (sidechick)

[Sidechickbuiltjk]

Hi guys wanting to say hi from Texas. This is my 2010 Rubicon. Built this entire rig in my backyard. Its a daily driven jeep. Well hello and look forward to meeting some new people.

Sweet, I love this Heeps name. That is a real nice set up. Hopefully I can get my jalopy built in time for this years Moab run.

You should add some pics of how you got it built. I would love to see how you did it all.

Here's some different setups ive had. Ive done 4 suspension setups. Custom has been the best so far.

Bad@$$

I love it. What an overhaul. Does it articulate well with your lower arms on the outside of the frame? I was considering this as well except I am shooting for dual triangulation. I decided hell or high water that there will not be a track bar on my build.

One hell of a comp cut, it really does look great!

Its very flexible. I wanted to triangulate but didn't because of the fuel tank. I wanted to keep the stock tank for capacity. And plus nonroom in the back due to the bracing and 16" rear stretch. I put the arma on the side because clearance. Didn't want the arms to drag on everything. The rear is 4 link. The front is both 3 and 4 link. When i send it i go 4 link. Jeep honestly does great on road aswell. Its my daily. I put around 25,000 miles a year on it. Tires are pricey haha. Every damn year i have to replace them.

Wow, that's a badass JK you built right there! What all do you have done to it (aside from the obvious)? Or did I miss that part?

I love that it's a 2-door as well

In other words, a ton of money and labor.

Definitely one of the coolest JKs on here, that's for sure.
