Thanks, I thought thats what you're saying. I'll go out there and start flipping my uppers back.
Now I'm setting the pinion angle with the uppers, getting the axle inline with the new driveshaft. It doesn't seem that I really need to move my rear lowers. Was that the case with you?

just a quick update for you all - we took several steps backwards - all the rear arms were installed wrong. plus I don't have all the tools so I had to drop $200 at sears just to get the right tools
it'll be a few days before I'm up and running unfortunately.
somebody didn't follow the directions!!!!!

Alright, well I got the uppers at least back on in the right direction - but jesus, I hope I don't have to adjust them again. That flag bolt on the passenger side for the rear upper is a pain in my ass. For some reason every time I undo it, it takes me 20 minutes to get it back on. The driver side goes on like a champ, but the gas tank makes the passenger side a real chore.
Tomorrow night I'm going to hopefully swap the rear lowers around and get my pinion dialed in. Then onto the front driveshaft and front axle. Thankfully its not too off center, so hopefully I can get it all done tomorrow.

Are you going to work on it during the week, or put it of until this weekend? If you put it of until next weekend, I will cancel on Little Sahara and could come up and help.

If I have to work on it all week, I have a feeling I won't be able to make the dunes run - my wife is already tired of me working on the jeep and its only 2 days into it....if anything, I may not be able to stay as long as you guys - I'll just have to play it by ear.
I'm hitting the hay - tomorrow, round 3 - fight!

All that is left is to flip the rear lower arms, double check the rear measurements, remove the front yokes, install the front shaft, and adjust the front.
