We are waiting on some weld tabs to be able to finish up the front fenders so we started on the rear wheelwells.
We want to be able to stuff up to a 40" tire so we had to open up the rear wheelwells. We highlined the front fenders so the rear wheelwells had to be widened and raised the same...
The Gladiators have the extra frame section that is silver in the pic. The Mojave just got extra welding and some stronger brackets compared to our Rubicon.
Now we are working on the front fenders.
We bent up some 5/8" thin wall tubing for the fenders first.
Then we made templates for the sheetmetal covers for the fenders. We then used the templates and cut out the sheetmetal.
We will weld the fender tubing to the hood first. Then we will...
My number is below. The Z28 was featured in an online magazine about 6 months ago. The car is not a wrap, it is almost all Carbon Fiber (except the rear quarters and plastic bumpers). We saved over 200 lbs with all the carbon on the car. The chromoly race cage that is in it was about 200lbs...
The quoted lead time is the best I can do right now as they are doing a production run of the kits. The sooner the order is submitted the sooner the ship date. The ECM Unlock/Flash takes 1 day at Petty's Garage, the kit includes the box and prepaid 2 day to and from Petty's Garage. So figure...

Our JTR is not regeared but I am still on the stock 33s. Regear after 37s would be a judgement call based on shift points and feel. I would think that 35s would be perfect with the stock gearing and the MagnaCharger as it would stretch out the gears a little. The stock 4.10 gears and 33s on...
Most companies will discount the install when you purchase the kit from them. For an example (Magnuson Kit) we do a discounted install of $750.00 when you purchase from us. If you bring in your own kit then the install is $1250.00 so long as it is a new unopened kit.
I drive all city with very little freeway. I was seeing 12.9 before the supercharger and now I am seeing 11.9 after the installation. I have to admit that I do drive aggressively and that is why my numbers are down. I didn't get a JT for the gas mileage, I got it for the fun!
