Finished putting my 3" RC lift on, except for rear shocks, broke the rear upper shock bolt heads off trying to take them out. Still broke even after 2 days of soaking them with penetrating oil. Gonna either drill em out or hammer them out, not sure what im gonna do yet.

Wheeled it I found a sweet little spot In gulf breeze, had allot of fun I was following a guy that was showing me around and I took a bad line and slid in to some deep ruts high centered and it was all over. My windows were down and my passenger door in the interior is covered in mud 
also found a huge sand pit with some clear standing water

what size rod end? no reason a 3/4" ruffstuff heim can't handle the loads necessary for a panhard... stainless steel too.
looks like that one was not cared for, rusted and broke. I have never seen a rod end fail that way before.

lol...so glad I don't live in the salt belt....ive actually left steel unpainted on the bottom of my rig for weeks... even after 2 rainstorms, my entire steering, shock brackets, and CA skids were nothing more than surface rust.
every rod end I've seen fail (not many) was from hitting something on the trail.

Ordered new pre-cats. I've been getting a P0432 code for about a year now and just keep resetting it with my scan gauge. Its happening more often now and it won't pass emissions like that.
I'll post a write up if I end up replacing them myself. I can barely see them from under the jeep. Should be fun.
Damn you California emissions. :thumbdown::brickwall
On the plus side I spent the extra coin for the Magnaflow stainless ones. I don't want to have to replace them again in 2 years when the cheaper one rusts out.

What was the damage on those if i may ask? i have those on my 2000 and they have successfully ruined my life... well not exactly but forced me to buy a new head for it since the motor that was in it had a whole in the block.Ordered new pre-cats.
