Daveysjeeps.com is a good source and insurance auctions are really good but you need a dealer license.

Hey John,

Where are the pix of the install!

Daveys has most everything! They aren't to expensive and ship fast as well.

[97casteeltj]

well i had my camera in the jeep after doing the install, and well Mr. Gustav decided to even kind of hit Oklahoma with some storms and flooded my Jeep including my camera....i'm going to get another soon, but won't have pics of the install process just the after pics, i may have some, but probably not....tomorrow i have to go to a wedding and a birthday, but i'm getting my front regeared and locked and probably also my BL and MML....hopefully pics soon!

Finally got some time to start working on the front axle today.

I got the shock hoops and coil overs mocked up.

Full stuff

[spyder6]

address? home phone? leave a key under the mat?

[Savvy]

Finally got back to the Jeep and i'm almost done with the front. I just need to add weld some steering arms for the tie rod and place the limit straps. For now it is on 40's so I can flip it around and strat on the back. I'm hoping it will not take as long.


Top cross brace mocked up

Drag link and track bar are parallel but the track bar need 1.5" to be perfect. I expect a little bump steer.

It is a little low right now as I have not adjusted the coilover yet. It will probably go up 2-3". I'd like to keep it here but then I'd only have 3-4" of up travel.


Spidertrax hats and rotors with Wilwood calipers make up teh front brakes

This thing is sweet. Thumbs up on an awesome build.

Yesterday, I fianlly started on the rear and got a little done. By far my least favorite thing to do is cut out the old brackets and grind everything clean. The plasma torch makes it a lot easier.


Old SA & spring perches are now gone


Four link brackets will sit here

Now I just have to wait for the Currie Iron Jock Axle. I hope to pick it up next week so I can get the Jeep back on it wheels. There is still a bunch of work.

I'll probably do what you showed me and route them up and to the outside of the bracket. I was also thinking I could mount the emission stuff underneath just to the right of the bracket.

Crawled the whole thread...Amazing work!!!

[Savvy]

I picked up the Currie Iron Jock late Friday. Allow three weeks when you order a Currie rear end. It has 5.38 gears, 35 spline SF axle shafts with an ARB Locker.

Got the axle underneath


Installed the Genright Tank and checked fit. I can probably move bak another 1".

I'm going to have to notch the tub a little so I can get a full 7" of up travel I have planned. The upper control arms hit the rear foot well just a little and the diff brackets hits at 5" of up travel

Got all of the control arms brackets tacked and cut and tacked the tubes.

Right now I'm at 99.5" WB so I'll get the 100" I was looking for. Next up shock towers.

[PBR]

what size coil overs are those?

This thread is amazing. Really enjoyed reading the progress on this Jeep. I can't believe how this started as a rollover. Keep it up, I hope to read more!
