Lookin good Hud. I wanna truss my front axle soon as well or just upgrade and truss the new one.

 

hell yes!! i dig the look of em!! worth it either way!!

 

thanks man.......what "new one" do you speak of? you got another diff layin around? d30, d44?

 

I'm already thinkin about the winter project. 44? 60?!?!?? Junkyard then rebuild, re gear, locker and truss up.

 

Looking good, nice beads on there!

 

Warrantied and installed 2 front RS 9000 shocks old style and got the newer 9000 xl to replace them with. One was blown and leaking much better now.

 

im gonna go throw some sparks at the xj today........mini boatside sliders should started and finished tonight.

 

thanks. after 6 years of self-tought welding, im getting it down. i still have never had a real welder look at my welds and critique them. i just bash on em an see if they break.

i have had 2 of my welds break. one was on a truss, and one on a spare tire carrier. the truss was because i had too big of gap that i had welded in. now you can see i leave no big gaps to fill. the spare tire carrier was the first thing i ever welded. buger welds galore!! zero penitration cuz i had no clue what i was doing, and i was using flux core. my flux welds look better than my gas migged welds these days cuz i did it for a long time without gas.

 

finished my sliders yesterday. stupid fn back went out again, and i litterally got stuck on the ground for 30 mins and couldnt get up.....that was only half way thru the first one!!

almost called my girl to come take me to the hospital, but laughed at myself for falling and not being able to get up at 28 years old!!!!

somehow i overcame the pain for the rest of the day and got em done!!

barely slept, and still goin wheelin today!! (dont be as stubborn as me, it will kill you)

pics of the sliders tonight.

 

sorry to hear man.. when u are gona do some heavy lifting. let me know.

and nice job on the truss. can't wait to see the sliders.


kinda a while back, but i got steering and sliders on the zj. traded that axle plus cash.

 

Got out the ramp and check the rear flex and shock travel after the D60 install.

 

lifting weights doing exercises like stiff leg deads and getting stronger ab muscles will cure most bad backs...i ruptured a lower disc at 19 ,and today i have no real issues with it ,and it's all because the muscles there are incredibly strong .

 

my doctor told me pretty much the same a few years ago. i just need to start making time to work out....and i also need to build a fab table. i do most of my fab on the ground. bending down that many times, picking up heavy shyt, is gonna kill me.

i have ruptured a few discs in my back, and its no bueno!! feels like i did it again. usually my pain starts to go away after one night, but it still hurts the same.

wheeling yesterday was prob a bad idea, but i cant not wheel!!!!

 

put my 36s on saturday!

 

Saw them at the show. Look awesome. You should have done the rock pile.
