Ok shoot me a text tomorrow I wanna get your opinion on the project anyhow. And if the front skid isn't gone yet I'd like it for the 99 I started doing the work today... What a joy busted all four shock bolts up top in the back and had to get my super mechanic Larry to help me cut off the rear leafs because everything we tried on the pass front leaf bolt didn't work then it sheared so we had to cut the bushings and collar then heat the bolt then extract with vise grips luckily it worked on both sides so I need to go grab two new bolts tomorrow and then jack with mounting the rear shocks then the rear will be done... I praise anyone who doesn't have access to a lift that woulda sucked on our backs... The front will be just as fun I'm sure

Got my trackbar installed over the weekend and aligned today. This is the first time in over a year my jeep has been reasonably enjoyable to drive. Dealing with replacing the front axle last winter which resulted in death wobble and having to replace all front steering components it's been a bit to much for a daily driver. I'm thinking of selling it come spring or if I can find a really good deal on a tahoe
