Well ill keep good care of her for ya.
Yea took a few minutes last night to tear the rear axle out.
I wish I could just put them all on the 2door.

Now the outside of this thing doesn't turn heads, but when you get under and see how clean it is... that's where anybody up north drops there jaws.

Looking for a 4x4 ax 15 in the southeast regions.
Im in atlanta for the next few weeks but stuck in a work truck.
When i get back to nc i should have frame stiffies ready to be installed.

33's or 35's?

After i get the stiffies on all parts will be slapping everything onto this jeep with new rubber to ride on.

35's if you are doing the majority off pavement. The added diff clearance made a big difference where I wheel. I think 33's do much better on the rd.

Mine is pretty much off road only. 3:55 gears on 36's. Actually thinking about 3:07 gears if I can lighten it up a good bit. Would not suggest this to just anyone though.

My axles already have 4.10 gears. I'm hoping there not to low with the manual.

I think that would be just fine. Mine is actually tall for a specific application. Mine is too tall for the road

I need to order shackles for it.
And get new front brake lines.
Still need to get tires and rims.

Still need to get a new tranny and t case.
I really want a 241 tranny for the 4:1 low range.

I can't wait to get my parts on and have some fun down south here.
