It's a custom shaft from local storeWhat kind of front drive shaft did you use?
Yes you do drill a hole through the roof & seal aroundHow are your roof light wires run up to the rack? How are they sealed if penetrating the roof?
Thanks. Having a sun roof definitely limits the space to drill but the roof rail looked like the best alternative.On my ZJ, I drilled a hole through the roof rail and ran the wire inside up the pillar under the plastic, under the headliner, and out of the hole through the roof rail. I just sealed it from below and from up top with gasket maker. I also wrapped the wire in a substantial amount of electrical tape to keep it from wearing through and grounding out. I grounded my lights on one of the roof rail bolts so that I only had to run one wire into the passenger compartment.
I love that color but I also like the way your Jeep looks with tan paint.Thinking about re-painting the whole car " Jeep Rescue Green".
Not sure if it is a good idea.
Does anyone know a good shop in LA county, near Pasadena?
You mean my original color?I love that color but I also like the way your Jeep looks with tan paint.
Yeah that's one of my favorite colors for the ZJ.You mean my original color?
iI was quoted $3000~3300 for original color, $3500~3700 to change color because more job will be involved.
Does it need a paint job? I wasn't suggesting to repaint it the same color, just leave it the way it is. If you're going to spend the money repainting it I'd definitely pick a color that's not on a stock ZJ, like the rescue green.I was quoted $3000~3300 for original color, $3500~3700 to change color because more job will be involved.
the car has a lot of scatches & dents from offroading. I am OK, my wife find it annoying. Specially this car gets a lot of attention driving around.Does it need a paint job?

Los Angeles!where you located, my dad is a painter, charges next to nothing just to make ends meet, he's in Iowa though. Even pretty good on simple airbrushing too...the plastics were bought like that but he did the tank and gets a good deal on the powdercoating for those rims on there....
The front & rear swaybars combos are great!Wow! Thats a large chunk of paint cash for something that enjoys trail abuse. I read your whole build thread and I think your ZJ is awesome. Its your rig and do what makes you happy.
Any update on how your front and rear sway control is turning out road vs trail long term?
