I ordered them through completeoffroad.com If you order there get the "no name brand" they are still the Yukon's they just don't advertise that they are Yukon's to save on marketing cost or something like that. With the Eaton E-Lockers you will need to order an additional bearing ring for each locker. The one in the install kits doesn't work with the lockers for some reason. I think I paid like 2ish or something like that for both lockers and gears and install kits but I honestly don't remember.

Well ordered some more parts today. Ordered up the IRO Belly Skid and Hack-n-Tap SYE. Hey goof thanks for the heads up earlier on about the HD brackets I made sure to ask for them and turns out that all belly skids get them now.

Small update while still deployed. Shippment tracking shows my Clayton's are out for delivery and should be at my door sometime this evening I would imagine, and my belly skid and SYE are in Henderson, CO which is about an hourish away so I would hope they make it to the door tomorrow sometime. I'll try to talk my girl into opening them and snapping some pics for me but I'm not holding my breath. On the other hand I keep surfing craigslist to find the perfect for me 5.2 but found that catches my eye (I'm being kind of picky). Chances are I'll end up keeping the 4.0 and doing a few engine mods like headers, TB spacer, and new TB to try and help things out a bit on the power end. I also think I'm going to have to swap in a new radiator, it's leaking coolant from the passenger side of the rad somewhere and she doesn't know anything about cars to find it for me. Any suggestions on aftermarket or should I rock an OEM one?

So I'm doing a small debate. I planning on making another purchase for the ZJ but I'm at a cross roads. I have been talking to a friend about an internal cage for him to fab and install for me, picking up a front bumper, or a pair of Iceland flares. If I do the bumper I was thinking about Icelands for the reduced cost and for as good as it looks (after seeing ZJones ZJ, which looks amazing BTW) but kind of want to be original so I was thinking a Protofab tube bumper w/ stinger and the Iceland flares. I can do the flares and bumper or the cage don't know which way I should go. What do you guys think.

I'm a P-3 pilot... and I take offense to that Jets are good and fun, but the lifestyle really sucks. Besides, they wouldn't keep you nearly as busy as the 50 year old P-3's that I'm sure you've had to respond to more than once! P-3's are only operated by the navy BTW.

Awesome build! I say don't go with the flares and get the cage, but that just because I like the simplicity of it now. But either way I'm sure it will look great.

Actually we haven't had one response to the P-3's! I didn't know that P-3's are only Navy... Now I have to figure out WTF Marines are doing here hmmmmm. I'm kind of leaning toward the cage but wanted to know what everyone else thought. Your WK is tits BTW! Makes me want to do that to mine but she would kill me if I started to mod that one as well well more than what it is

Well I'm home now and have some parts to install. Found a decent sized puddle of fluid under my Jeep. Have to figure if it is PS fluid, from the tranny or TC. With any luck I'll be picking up a V8 in the next few days to swap all of my stuff to and then sell my I6.
