Sometimes the biggest problems you face on a project are fixing someone else’s fixes! You know what I’m talking about.

Stacey takes on old ‘77 Jeep CJ5 and starts correcting some issues by dumping the old sagging suspension and replacing it with a new 4” lift and some new wheels and tires. If you’ve got an old vehicle that has been hacked on, there are some easy fixes to get it back on the road safely.
