A Rancho 2.5-inch lift kit is also installed, providing increased ground clearance. The entire front axle assembly was also primed with POR-15 for rust protection.

Um, over there we got the fenders. The fenders are a little rusty, but BJ's Off-Road, shout out to them. They have the patch kit for that. So, anyways, that is the 77 Jeep J20. I definitely
