Also i have the Adavnced adapters SYE for it, gonna rummage through a jy to find a front drive shaft to use as my rear untill the tom woods comes in. I bought a can of herculiner for the lowers and maybe quaters/fenders after trimming, any have experience with it. Built this nifty little tool box for the trunk over the christmas weekend. All together cost me around 100$...

no excuses, just progress!
Aright, so. I have been slacking...boooo. i know i know, haze me now. well today i put in some work.......
First here are some pics of the self made tool box in the back of the jeep by request (with all of my boxes for the lift on top)
Mans best friend! 3ft flex head 1/2 inch drive and some rust blaster
Wrong shocks got sent, to short, so that will have to be done at a later time.
than......after a little and some , with a few busted knuckles and boiling rubber flying on my face from having to cut the rubber bushings for the leafs, the rear was completed!!
With the little tires...
Than the 33 baja claws
