I'd love to go to coil overs but I don't think the wife would approve. Where you picking them up at?

Ill give my buddy a call and see if he's got his welder. Maybe this weekend would be a good time!

Yeah the bolt on coils aren't to bad from rebel about $3500 that's why I might just go with that kit but idk-- the rusty's kit with fox shocks offers more travel than rebels kit so that's what has me torn!!

I was told that the rcv shafts don't got through the Magnum 44 from Offroad Evo (remember told)

EVO: Gussets/Brackets, EVO Mfg 44 Magnum Sealed JK/TJ Axle Sleeves

You have both there?

Sleeves haven't shown up yet, but I talked to Eric at northridge that confirmed with the crew up there that both the rcvs and Evo mags will work together.

I could get a good look at a t-bone by sticking my head up a bulls ass, but I'd rather take the butchers word for it!!

Hahaha first time I used it in the right context! Ill let you know if it jives.

Does anyone know how to pop out the stock rubi inner axle seals? I'm tearing all the parts before doing the build and cant get the rcvs past the stock seals. I know they need to be replaced, but other than a BFH and large screw driver......
