This thing is gonna look sick!!!

 

Thanks.. I'm excited

here are some pics..

check out the welds on the front axle :2thumbsup:















Here is the front pretty much all mocked up minus the C gussets. that we will be doing next week



my LJs guts all out



you can see that the tranni is out.. sent it to check the Syncros. well it turns out that the tranni needs a rebuild first second and reverse gears are shot.. all syncros need replacment and this is gonna cost an extra 1300 :thumbdown:

we should have the tranni back Monday or Tuesday at most.

The rear Axle is also out





at this point we are waiting on the tranni to comeback so that we can install it. After the install we can adjust the pinion angle of the rear JK 44 and weld the truss. after that both axles go to sand blast! then powdercoat.


Parts on back order:

-Teraflex Swaybar system - thought of the Curries but they are too soft and offroad only :thumbdown:

-37" MTRs (i'm thinking of going to 37" BFG AT KOs) what do you think?

-Dynatrac Balljoints

Thanks and stay tuned for more

 

37" BFG AT's will look great on there...Well almost any 37's would look great on a LJ!

 

Good job man cant wait to see it done

 

Yea, I'm not really sure what tires to go with.. I really like the MTRs and Toyos.. unfortunately, there is no way I can get a 37" toyo on my Rubi wheels.. 37x12.50 is pushing the limits on the Moabs.. so I'm hopping those MTRs get here before we get closer to the end! the KM2s suck on snow

Thanks
