We got on the trails around 10 and started at Daniel. Came up on a broken rig and a line behind him so turned around and went up the back side. Hung out at the top for a while watching all the bigger rigs go up the front. Left the trails around noon and went to the actual jamboree. Got back on the trails around 2ish and ran Rocky Mt Loop to Poser Rock to Wolfs Den and then Dutch John. Sun started to set or else we would have run Dickie Bell.

I actually really like that pic haha.
So yesterday was a successful day. I got my bored throttle body painted and installed, installed extended front and rear bumpstops, replaced a motor mount, and installed some loaner 4.5" coils to level the front out since the relocation brackets lifted the rear
I have pics of everything but this uploader is really starting to **** me off. It always fails

emailed them to my work computer from my phone and had the email re-size them for me.
First two are the others from the rti ramp at the jamboree. I'll have to go and remeasure the front for shocks again because I just put taller coils in.
Third is the fresh and clean 60 mm TB.
Last two show the new bumps stops and a comparison to what was left of the rears to the new. I would have done the same for the front but there wasn't anything there to compare it to haha

Painting the TB. Also got some 4.5" coils installed and it really leveled out the front. The second pic of the rig looks like the front is still lower slightly but the rake is no where near as bad as it was before with the 3" coils

With a big thanks going to Will for giving me a stock pitman arm, spare wheel, and 25% off code for me to order my Durango box with. Once the steering box gets here everything should be squared away

Durango up-grade
I was wondering if you are going to install a high volume power steering pump when you do your steering box. I am going to do the up-grade soon but want to a lot of things at the same time (Rusty's Steering rail stiffeners, Rusty's heavy duty steering brace and the high volume pump) I still need to purchase the pump. I have read mixed reviews on the up-grade but all of them have not up-graded the pump as well. Keep us posted on what you think when you do yours.

I've done the Durango box on one other rig and it is also on desertfox's rig without a pump upgrade. Both rigs are running just fine so I don't plan to upgrade the pump. Stiffening the frame will get done eventually. I've been eyeballing hd offroad's full set of stiffeners. I already have a crok inner brace to replace the stock cast spacer.

I just read through all 24 pages, what a great build! Really like your jeep, just picked up a 96 2 door 5 speed for a grand and hoping to make it look half as nice as yours lol
