The customer bought a bare chassis with the 1 link rear w/trackbar. Took it to shop and they did this which is what we started with.

Looks that way..

I was very impressed with what Mike, John and the crew did with my TJ. I am sure this guy is very impressed........

Nice job on this thing! This buggy is like a party on 4 wheels!!!

The field behind the shop will never be the same, though.
