When I got the Green Mamba 5 or 6 yrs ago, She was all stock, so I ran down and bought some pimpin wheels and tires.
(( Oh yeah, She only has a 4 cylinder ))
Then I realized that I needed more agressive and bigger tires 32" Mudkings and a lift kit, and a locker and a winch and some KC lights..Oh yeah and a cool highlift jack mounted to the front of my bumper. I was cool !! (( The addiction had started. ))
Then it was time for bigger tires 35" Super Swamper Tires and a 2 inch body lift.
Then it was time for bigger tires 38" TSL's and a SOA and some Dana 44 axles and a better roll cage and some beadlocks.
After that, Thats when I flipped her over backwards and rolled her 1 1/2 times with four of my buddies in it with me. ( We were all ok ). It just crushed the hood and the fenders, and kinda curved the windshield, but other than that she was fine.. Oh yeah, One of the shackles broke loose from the frame. We flipped her backover, and drove it back to camp.
So then, I needed a really really huge STINGER !! and and Atlas, and I needed to stretch the wheelbase out a bit as well. Plus, I put a Dana 60 in the rear. She got 513 gears as well.
Then it was time to cut the stinger off, and build one that was not so huge, and stretch the front out a bit and build some tube fenders, and and some crusher corners for the rear. Plus buy some warn shafts and some CTMs. And once again.. Get some bigger tires. 39.5 Iroks.
More on the next post.. Did not have enough room for all the picture..

Here is the rest from the last post...(( Sorry its so long, but she has been through the mill ))
The rest is history..
Now, I am in the process of gathering up some new items for the new evolution of my jeep, and hopefully the last evolution.
Here is what I have in store...
I have already bought a LT1 engine.
I have bought some Bigger axles. Dana 60 front and Dana 70 Rear that have been setup with 513 gears and detroits in them, They have never been wheeled. The front Dana 60 axles is a kingpin and it is high pinion, and the pumpkin has been rotated up. They are 65" wide
I have already bought some new to me 42" TSL's and some beadlocks.
I will be going 4 link front and rear and full hydrolic steering. The wheelbase will be stretched to about 15"
I will be running Coilovers on all four corners..
I just bought some Molly tubing for my links..
And I think that is it.. There are some other things that will have to be bought to, but that will have to wait for now.
The new build will either take place this summer when its super hot outside or this winter...
Right now, I want to wheel..
And thats how my Green Mamba has grown since I bought her.

yeah AMAZING
thats what i want to do with my jeep, im planning on doing that when i get outta college and finishing it by the time im about 27 ish then getting married, that way i get in all my jeep money spending in while im single and build it so tough nothing will break so ill be good for the nest 20 yrs or so
Well technically I had to take 2 months off to get married in the middle of the build. But I was basically married during the whole time. Do yourself a favor and find a jeep chick. Else you won't have the jeep for long.
I can honestly say that I mowed lawns to pay for alot of the mods that I did to my jeep. That is something that I did after my real job. But it paid off.
