Hey fishrising! See you're over here too (I relplied to your intro thread on jkfreaks as well).

Clayton is here in CT, like other's have said, CT axle as Rick pointed out. Clayton did my original set of gears and did a great job at a very fair shop price.

If you want to take a drive up to Torrington, I'd be more than happy to help you out with anything you need, and show you everything you need to know along the way.

There's a good crew of people in CT who know their way around the JK's, top to bottom, gears/welding/fab, you name it. Feel free to PM me if you want.

Wow popular place for Jeepers! There is another meet and greet there the day before on Saturday the 11th at 2.

I had never heard of the place until these M&Gs.

Rick.

Of course...I can't make either M&G due to kids' activities, but I'll keep my eyes open for future ones!

My go-to installer in CT is Justin Magner at Briggs Tire in Norwalk. He knows his stuff and great prices.

Smith's Equipment Sales in North Franklin, CT, anyone know of them? Any good? Sounds like a snow plow shop that also does Jeep work.

All joking aside, Jae's good, he's just a haul for some. I would def reccomend him to anyone in the southwest corner.
