You forgot your sway bar cover.
I'm looking at the Gen Right bumper so it may never go back on.
My fender rust repair didn't hold up because I used some really old stuff (J-B Weld steel stick) I had in my toolbox. I removed it, cleaned and rust proofed the exposed metal and tried again with some new J-B Weld KwikWeld. This stuff worked great. Sanded it down, painted it and put my "tool holder" back on. Looks like new. 
I saw this Jeep for sale and thought something seems counterproductive for clearance. ARB axles.

How did you even know there was rust developing under there?
I saw a tiny bump from back before I put the vinyl on the fenders. It was now the size of a dime and sticking up under the vinyl. It ended up being the size of a nickel when I drilled everything out.
I was going to order a hood cowl to replace my badly faded one. Before I spent $100, I decided to try my Formula 1 red color wax. It worked pretty good and even stained my fingers pink.
p.s. The tire track decals are there to take your eyes away from the tree branch dent under them. Nobody ever noticed the dent.

They were just opening for the season. So there weren't many people. The motor cycle parking stalls were a different thing.
This guy served us plenty of moonshine and whiskey samples. Fun guy and stories.
After the original burned down, they moved to 700 acres and were expanding when we were there. Stretching the overhead and doubling the bars outside.
Finally installed my Motobilt Highlines and new 35s

Thanks so much. I had the other one replaced in August last year so I know what to expect.
My 3 seater project is almost done. Just waiting on the paint on the harness bar to dry.
Now I have to figure out how i'm going to fit a cooler and my recovery gear in.

Just asked myself if I’m crazy and we all said No

Who is going to sit there? Your child? This steel bar right in front of the seat is a certain death trap.

Yes, I have a big life insurance policy on them
I couldn't find a cup holder I liked for the rear seat, so I came up with my own. We'll see how well it works tomorrow when the oldest and I go for lunch.
I'm wanting to drill holes in the frame in order to allow water to drain out and to prevent rust. Are these the best 2 spots?

That's where I drilled mine.

I was afraid you were going to ask that.
I honestly don't remember. I’m certain it was not 1/2", but something a little smaller. Probably 3/8", maybe even 5/16"There is a post here somewhere where I said what I used, but I have no idea where that thread is.
