well reading this thread has me kinda worried about doing any mods.,i put on a new steering stabilizer and i broke 2 gear pullers and a pitman arm puller and finnally had to remove the tie rod and use a 30 ton press to get the old one out,took 3 day and a lot of cussing and sweating,but enjoyed ever minute of it.ur lift looks good,keep us posted on ur progress

 

Sticker's do make the Rig..... My drive shaft didn't come with stickers and i contacted the builder and he's sending stickers.

@ jabo68....what kind of steering stabilizer did you put in. I was worried too aout modding my cherokee......now that it's done though I'm glad I did it. it was a learning experience but well worth it.
What was supposed to be just a lift, sye kit, and driveshaft turned into all 3 of those plus a new brake line from the rear to the master, axle seals, wheel cylinder in the back, new drum shoes, rotors in the front.

 

All that for the steering stabilizer? It's two bolts.

 

ok let me clarify,3 days,about 45 min. to an hour each day, depending on how long it took me to start cussin,yeah i know bhenn its two bolts, but the tapered stud that goes thru the tie rod had to be pressed out with a 30 ton press.

 

was a monroe i think,i kinda enjoy all the cussin and throwin tools,kinda relaxin,i might do a lift one day but rite now just enjoyin the experience.

 

same here lol

 

Finally installed my jks discos today, didnt take pics though.

 

I want to paint my steering, and diff covers, I'm thinking silver to match my springs and control arms, but am looking for suggestions on what would look good with the body color, I also have the body color paint, so I could do that too.

 

@ jabo......i used a 4lb sludge hammer and got mine out in 5 mins......i have a pic of it on my build page, look up project kika.

I'd go with a silver or grey for you diff and steering cover, i did mine red.
updated my build post with a pic. (project kika 2.0)

 

I read your build last night.

 

LOL,i tried a 5 lb.,10 lb. sledge,4 different gear pullers and a pitman arm puller and broke em all,along with soaking for days in every solvent known to man,and finnaly a 30 ton press did the trick,glad yours was easier.

 

When in doubt drill it out. Saves a lot of time and frustration.

 

A couple of poser shots.

 

I flushed the cooling system yesterday, and replaced the thermostat, and cleaned the iac valve and it's hole in the throttle body. I also broke two of the airbox bolts... Rusty *** piece of ****.

 

Buying 5 31x10.5x15 bfg ats and soft 8s tomorrow if they are in good shape.
