Got a call from MM. My radius arms are being re-scheduled for the end of next month. He had a dude drop off a s-10 wanting a sas and cage.

So today i pulled the pucks out of the rear. Is it bad that my axle rotates as much as it dose? I know theres a wicked swing radius on short arms but damn.

Someone probably pulled it and reattached it in the past. There shouldn't be any self tappers in there.

Also i really want to swap in an e-fan. Starting to research that!

I looked at my wj and it has a huge e-fan so that route is going to be a possibility

Not much to write home about but zj's going to the MM shop tomorrow. It's getting new bumpstops, 44a lincon locked, and "steps" added to the rockers.

My GF is just over 5' and my mon has hip problems. I feel bad for them so basically the same steps that were on my sliders will be added to the tube but angled down a bit so there easier to reach.

As for bumpstops. Ive lost my rear coil 3 times now. Not happy about it atall. So were expending the factory post but capping the tube and weldin in a nut. That way a factory front bumpstop cup can be screwed in. it will need to be fine tuned but i like the idea.

Picked it up today. Steps are done along with the lincoln lock. I end up making my own spring post extensions
