Well the jeep went back into the garage I bent the front lower likes so I decided to extend the front forward and add air bumps.

Here is what I started with just a pile of left over metal.
fabed up all the pieces.

 

[boxboy]

Then I put it together and took it apart several times trying to get the correct location.

But I think they turned out alright now I just need to have someone charge them up. :booo:

 

[boxboy]

I ended up moving the front axle almost 3 inches forward putting my wheel base at 108.5 or so.
