Nice! I would be jealous of the tires but I'm only jealous that you can wheel on yours right away.

Any body not watching the game guy got his mall crawler stuck Lawrence and centennial I don't have my toe rope with me and he didn't have anything but a shovel I told him to try and stick some of the bigger rocks under his tires to try and have some thing to grip but if any of you are around the area and have something to pull with he would probably be happy to have the help

I was waiting to get an alignment but only after I install my heim steering. Tube will be here on tuesday to start that, getpipe is stupid expensive for DOM so I had to order it. Doing panhard and heim steering in one shot.

Still gotta install my Hack-n-tap and clock my tcase.

I don't 'need' to do all this but figured I might as well. I also got a D30 lokka to install as well. That will go in when I pull the knuckles to drill for new bolts for the heim steering.

I've been finishing up my bagged toyota which is driving now, dealing with a leaking water main in my house(rental) and doing a 5 lug conversion on my 87 mustang. Garage wall needs to be re-drywalled due to flood damage so working on **** is on hold.

So your not too worried about the shafts I borrowed and keep forgetting to get back to you?

I have too many, its my sickness. I have too many plans/parts and not enough time to work on it all.

I tore the dash out of my 87 mustang to do a heater core tonight, found I needed to seal up the heater box, gooped that up with silicone and while I waited for it to cure I decided to drop the transmission and start replacing the AOD with a T56 Mag.

I don't even know where to start on my dually project, its getting bagged, body-dropped and possibly cummins swapped. I need all my current projects nearly done first as the dually will only fit in the garage sideways.

Every few days, as I stumble around different piles of drivetrain parts, I pause and wonder. Then I forget to text you haha

If you still have them in your jeep, I'll swing by in the toyota and grab them. Can you mount a 175/55r15 on a 7" rim at work or is that taboo?

Well we don't like to do that kind of stuff, but I'd have to see it. I only have the short shaft and hub, not the long side... couldn't fit it on the trip so it's been in the garage

The tire doesn't even look stretched but I know its more of a numbers game with corporate. I will just do it at home with my mini spoons, takes longer to get the old(drove on it flat) off then it does to get the new on.

Now the front tires are the same 175/55r15 but on a 8" rim, that takes a little bit of ether to get the bead seated.

failed at trying to swap my NSS today. Got the new (to me) one rebuilt, but now I can't get the old one off the trans. Both the bolt and the nut are out but it seems like its seized on the little rod. Soaked it with PB Blaster for tonight, trying again in the morning.

I just ordered a NSS yesterday... mine's been acting up for years and now I'm having trans range issues, so it's time. What year is your xj? I have the step by step for the up to 96 xj in my pocket but the app won't let me post pics, so I can text to you if needed or can get you whatever on Friday (off tomorrow)
