Once I get my JK fixed, if it's on a Sunday, I can come by and give you guys a hand with things

Or... the road to the trail

 

INdEEd thought it would be a good idea, you know just incase Jason decides to tag along

 

Man that would be cool but that is a heck of a drive for you

 

That would be cool... we could have an east side mod party

 

No biggie... I've been there with wisdom teeth... no fun

If she's cool with you leaving for a little, then thats great. Feel free to bring the boys over if you'd like. Otherwise, I completely understand if you need to stay home.

The only real big task is getting the carrier back in, other than that () things should be pretty straight forward.

 

 

pick up a diff gasket yet ? or are you just going to use silicone

 

Till you can do something with the drag link, I'd recommend leaving the drop bracket. Drop pitman arm + no drop bracket = trackbar and drag link will no longer be parallel. If you want to ditch the drop bracket, get you the JKS trackbar brace and weld that on - it lets you raise the trackbar mounting point on the axle side up higher and then you can ditch the drop bracket. Here's the product:

 

I also got my JKS bump stops today

But, I'll probably wait until the Jeep is all functional again before attempting the install.

I cannot remember how much extra travel I have, so I'll need to get my Jeep out and fully flex it and take a tape measure to things before installing the adjustable bump stops.

 

RTV... I guess that's silicon

It's the red high temp RTV. I've used it before for making a gasket for the diff.

I'm going to pick up an extra can of brake cleaner (you can never have too much) and maybe extra diff fluid (in case we go spilling our lubricants on the floor again )
