My Jeep Build

Recommended Posts

Well, McGovney Designs isnt just about building enclosures. Ive been highly involved in skilled work ever since I was young, and I'm always wanting to learn new things. A couple of years ago I bought a Jeep TJ. Over the last year I have been modifying it to the point it is today. Ive known how to weld for years, but only on a stick welder. Just last year i learned how to MIG weld (which is so easy its not even funny), and I started building things for the Jeep. I'll make a detailed list of what all the Jeep has, then I'll provide pictures of stuff ive fabbed up or installed on the Jeep.

OBA (on board air)

Front bumper

Rock sliders

LOKKA front axle locker

2" suspension, 1" body lift

32" BFG KM2's

16" Moto Metal wheels

L.e.d. dash light replacement

KC headlight housings

55w HID's

Hadley Train horn

front sway bar removed

Round LED taillight conversion

Cobra 19dx (cb radio)

Kenwood 281 (ham radio)

Thats all i can think of right now. Anyway, onto the pictures...

OBA install:

Nice, I to know how to stick, and mig weld. Mig welding is easy just have to set the volts right, set the wire speed correctly, watch the puddle, and watch the travel speed... Stick isn't hard either you also have to watch the puddle and pause on the sides of a weld to prevent undercut.
