Good stuff. My dad does a bunch of stuff with faro arms and programming for the lasers and cnc's. Im gona have to bug him to make me some stuff haha. They got a laser scanner now so im guessing its a lot easier to duplicate smaller things. I wanna see if he can make me a aluminum trigger guard for one of my guns.

I ran slotted rotors and i saw no difference in braking. In my opinion the only effective way to get better braking would be to upgrade to the dual diaphragm booster, and get yourself a pair of WJ knuckles. with the WJ knuckles you get huge brake rotors that dwarf the stock rotors, and you also get dual piston calipers, the stopping difference is amazing

not quite, you have to weld on a spacer that you can buy from JKS to center the u-joint.
and if you want to go OTK steering you have to raise your track bar mount on the axle
its pretty straightforward though, there's alot of write-ups on jeepforum and NAXJA
