More progress. It fought me a bit but I was able to get it to set right (or where I was happy with it). Keep in mind its for an early model cherokee and I have a late model. Drilling into the rear quarter panel was hard to do but I was able to get past that haha.

that looks really great. i would have a hard time drilling that as well.

Last part of the carrier. I relocated the license plate by getting a normal bracket and cover.

Still need to cut a square out on the side fender. Doing that this afternoon.

Most likely going to be getting the Class 3 Recovery from Detours. Love this setup.

Took the Jeep out on its maiden voyage to the Ozarks. I was pleasantly surprised

I also got a bull bar for super CHEAP. My bumper is bent to heck anyway. So this will do until I get a bumper/winch combo. Probably going with the Detours USA one. Love that setup.

Finally got started on the rear end I had laying around.

Little update.

Got a Rubicon Express 3.5 super ride kit and a rugged ridge sye.








Here is a wide chain from a 231D out of a Dodge Durango. You can see its 1/2 inch wider.
I first tried to use a chain out of a Chevy transfer case (bottom chain of two chains) but it didn't work.

Noce i just built a 231 loke this but with a 231 chain, i swapped in a 6 pinion planetary as well

OmgNoWai

Yeah I had a 6 planetary gear but its for older model 231's. The gears are too rounded. The newer years are sharper, if that makes any sense.

cleenrob

Yup, gear cuts changed in 96

looking really nice. you did the SYE with the case still in the Jeep?

OmgNoWai

Yes, and it sucked a$$.

Any tips? I'm about to tackle a SYE install for the first time in a week or two.

Also, you get those wheels on? Curious to how they look.
