Doing some work on her this week end. Ill post some more pic then

|
I need a measurement between the A piller door jam and C piller door jam
|
Would that measurement be the same as my 90 xj?
Mine measures 48 5/8" from the top corner of the rear door jam on the c pillar to the center of the weld on the a pillar. Hope that's what you needed. |
that should buff right out!!!

Nice ride. Well, was a RLY nice ride. Shoulda took them cutters to the pillars! If i decide to chop mine one day thats how its going to happen. Ima let my probies have at it with the cutters and then finish cut with the sawzall myself. Did you ram jack the roof or use some cribbing and the spreaders?
About the exo, are you going hybrid or just straight exo? Just remember, triangulation, great welds and solid mounting points. |
