where are you located???

HEY! Thats my frame! Sweet! My frame is getting exposure! WOO HOO! Anyway, call Clayton Off-Road. They are like 5 minutes away from me. The number is (203) 757-0339 or visit them at www.claytonoffroad.com They can sell you all pieces you need. Just so you know, they cut the frame where the spring mount goes so the springs fit in. if you dont cut into it, the spring will not fit right. Basically, my 44 can come out and be bolted under any TJ or XJ. If you werent to cut into the frame, the lower spring buckets would need to be moved out slightly so they are in the same position as the uppers. Then again, the control arms would be off. I think they need to be in as mine is, but Im sure someone will argue the opposite. Just so you know, where the frame is cut is, has 1/4" steel in there for strenght, its not open or exposed. Here are a couple more pics of what it looks like close up. Dont mind the rain drops on it:






Here is a pic of the rear shocks mount. As you can see, the cut into it also to make room for the long travel shocks.

what track bar are u runing also?

[JOKER4INK]

Its an adjustable Clayton track bar up front. There is no track bar in the rear with the 4 link.

[YJscott2]

do u remeber how much just the front portion cost you?

[JOKER4INK]

Nope, no idea. I bought it complete. If you decide to call Clayton, there is a guy name Adam there. He is very knowledgeable! He or Clayton can tell you more than you'd want to know.

oh ok yeah i have been askin them ?s when are u goin to have the complete truck done?

[JOKER4INK]

That is the question of the damn century! I have nooo idea. I still have a lot more to go. Its stupid stuff too. For instance, I couldnt put the tranny in until I got the correct flywheel bolts (1st time was wrong), then I found out the clutch fork was bad and couldnt get a new one for like 3-4 days. Even the dealership would have had to order one. then its like oh, the motor mounts need to have a spacer in between them and the frame, and then its one thing after another... oh yeah, i need money. thats a key too! and new england weather has cooperated so any time id go out to do something, it'd end up raining. but i still have stuff to buy :fuel cell, radiator and driveshafts. other than that, i have everything else. It took me a little while to get the motor all set with new seals and gaskets and cleaned and what not too. its all prep that slowed me down
