I hadn't heard of it before, but I definitely like the setup. How long have you been running it? Any issues?

Here are their pictures:







I had to redrill a new upper mounting point about an inch further back and remove material up to the original upper mounting point to get full lock

Nice Jeep! I like your bumper.

How much lift minimum do you think you need to run 35's with your Bushwackers? I'm at 3.5" with the bushwacker cutouts on 31's. I want to go 35's, but don't want to lift much more.

I'm moving up to Alaska in June so I really liked your wheeling pictures. Can't wait to get my rig out there.

I love that idea! I've been wanting a hidden winch bumper and I wanted to build one but I love that idea better!

Replacing my D300. Swapping from the short output from a 1980 to a 1981 case within the new speed sensor rear output. Half way through swapping t-cases i ran into a slight issue with a missing rear output shaft seal on the "new" case. I'll be picking up a new one tomorrow and hopefully have everything installed by tomorrow evening.

Case on the left is from a 81 CJ and case on the right is from a 80

On the bright side. Hopefully the RTV has time to fully set up and I don't have leaks on this case

First test drive in almost 2 years. I forgot hot squirrly these rigs are. The short wheel base will take some getting used to.

Wow! I just went through all your build thread. She has really come a long way. That d44 looks like tank proof. I subscribed. Have a good one bro.
