I broke the factory cross pin in the differential. they make an upgraded one for $30 that I wish I had gotten

no gas skid. consequently, my gas tank had a huge dent in it. definitely run a skid or tuck the tank into the cargo area

bolts for the ruffstuff plates? I just used jack stands and a couple vices and welded those on. I didnt know they came with bolts

I also have a clocking jig you can borrow as soon as I clock my tcase. I was thinking about renting it out for $10 a pop

$10 rental sounds good but I could probably buy one outright for around the same cost of gas getting up to you to borrow it.

So I did a little measuring today and my 3" lift springs netted me 4.5" of lift. This is based on iron rock offroads stock xj center of hub to bottom of fender flare measurement of 17.5". So I think I will just go with 35"s. I think I will trow on the Artek C gussets and a WJ swap. I hope the tax man treats me well this year.

Any chance I could get a photo of the steering box brace and the taurus fan? I'm looking at supporting my steering box, but my taurus fan hangs low.
