full cage padding and new bestop padding for the oe bars all had to be cut



rugged ridge seat covers

[ancestralworm]

pitman arm back from zink


stainless brake lines


everything tight and lubed before the mount


had to roll on maypops to get it out of the garage




after 5 months it lives

[ancestralworm]

next it's off to the exhaust shop to re rout my front pipe. waiting for superior rebuild for the d30 along with some 4.88s.

my hanson got a custom stinger welded to it and is at powder coat getting prettied up.

still not sure what i'm doing for lockers but should have something panned out in the next few weeks.

Maybe it's the pics....but the last few of it finished.....it looks like the rear axle is sitting back pretty far. Are you still running a rear track bar? If your tires don't rub on the back of your wheel wells, watch out for your rear axle hitting your G-tank. What brand of JK lift is that?

nice build - can't wait to see some pics of your 1st run with that set-up

it is sitting back as far as possible with the oe tank. the trackbar kissed the skid ever so slightly but it will never hit the tank. i am currently running running 8 inch springs til i can get flat fenders and a new tank. at that point i will be dropping it back down to 6 inches.

the jk arms are from a skyjacker long arm kit. they had to be altered to work.

Good luck with the d30 and 37" stickys....take it reeeeaaaal easy.

If you haven't regeared yet, get yourself a D30HP housing, will give you an up tick in strength and clearance (2.5" for your DS) for very little incremental spend, housings are about 100 bucks, if you meed new ball joints they are another 100. Everything else swaps over.

Did you mod you Garvin bumper? I noticed that you have latch instead of bolt.

I wouldn't wasit my time, those sticky 37s need d60s to be reliable or atleast a tera 50. I broke stuff all the time on regular 35s and HP d30.
