Looking good. Sounds like a good upgrade.

Tube work on drivers side is done. Passanger side is bent and will be going on tomorrow.
looks good,
I would build a radiator hoop, but if you roll, the radiator is probably the last of your worries

looks wierd from the front. also looks like the front part of the fender is left un-protected?
side view look good though
Born to Kill
I just watched a spider dominate a fly on the wall outside, i thought would would travis do? and i did the opposite, spider lives!
just looked at the pics again, and damn do those 35's look small on it now.
Looks good.
A tree branh or one really funky rock is the only way to get to that corner of the fender (kinda hard to tell from those pictures though). The tire should keep most everything out from the bottom side.

with fresh paint it looks almost photo shopped. as always. progress is good
Red 81 CJ5, 35's, 4.10 and detroit, 4 to 1 dana 300, tbi efi, flat belly, cage, chromos and auzzie in front... sometimes runs. body damage to come
It looks good, but how is it going to take an impact? Is it tied in anywhere but the bumper and back by the door? I guess if you laid it on a rock it would slide.
