i was busyong working on it all week, and finally got done today. put in a RC double shear track bar, IRO tie rod, also put on my coil spacers and shackles, then flexed it out....

shackles REALLY help with droop:

emptied out the back lol got some stuff to install this week front skid and 1" t-case drop. oh and filled it with gas 35 bucks :thumbdown: lol

than im sitting home at like 915 all nice and relaxed and i get a text from my friend " my car died, can u come jump me?" i was llike ugh! lol but me being me i couldnt say no... so off i went i jumped his nice new 08 mustang in 2secs lol he not going to live that one down anytime soon

i dont trust T case drops, it ****** my crossmember all up. First the stock crossmember bolts wouldnt come out, so i had to drill them out, but they got drilled on an angle:brickwall, so the new ones wouldnt go in, so i had to take a 1.5 inch hole saw, and cut into the "frame" and cut out the old stud things, and replace it with a bolt and nut:brickwall
so now i have 4 holes in the already weak unibody, next i gotta get TNT frame stiffners. lol

drove it to school in back.. found a rear dana 44 off an 89 XJ for $300... 3.55 gearing. should i get it? or spend the money on the jcr stage 3 sliders?

so tempting 2 Nice Racing Car seats. Never Been Used!!

i say get the sliders, you already have the chryco 8.25, theres not much of a strenght difference between the 2.

Did this:

Cowl snorkel. Will have more pictures Sat when I touch it up and buddies g/f is around since her camera phone beats my blackberry pictures by far. Don't mind the broken fairlead mount.... JCR sent me out a set of the new fairlead mounts that are cut and folded so there are no welds to fail from angled winching... just need to find time to put them on. Gonna power wash and pb blast tomorrow night. Long arms and SYE planned for Sat. Finally putting on the pile of parts that has been in my room for all these months. If things go REALLY well Sat I'll install the CB too.

lemme guess... cowl intake??

Will they fit a XJ off a ZJ with little to no mods? Because theres a ZJ with one at my local JY that i havent pulled cause i didnt think it would fit.

yea, you have to trim the back of it if you have a hitch though.
