Oh and for anyone looking for extended brake lines....these Rugged Ridge lines were only 66 shipped to my door from Amazon. Can't beat that for front and rear extended lines.

Damn. These lines are nice.

So I started on the install of the 3 link today. Got both brackets mounted with the crush sleeves welded in. Then mother nature decided it was time for me to stop. I stopped for a little and then it lightened back up just long enough for me to get the front wheels off and the whole front end supported. Only carnage today was to my pinky. Slipped off a wrench and straight into the LCA mount. Who knew bones were so white?

Got that bandaged up and called it quits. Tomorrow I should have some helping hands so it should get finished...keeping fingers crossed. Only thing left is to cut off lca mounts, install flex joint at axle uca mount and bolt up arms.

Will post up pics tomorrow of the work.

Well didn't get it done today. worked from 11 to 4:30. Got the old LCA and factory UCA off. Then tackled the painstaking process of cutting off the LCA mounts. Took 4 hours to do it and even left part on the frame since its not in the way. Went through 10 cut off disks and burned up one of my grinders.

Ok since you probably didn't read that above, here's what it says in pics lol

Haha damn good deal huh? I haven't installed them yet but have pulled out of the box and inspected. They seem very nice but will find out first hand once installed and tested.

Got some more done before work this morning. All that's left is rear brake line, bless brakes, and alignment.

Well the brakes are bleed and she's on her own feet again. Rides pretty good. I do have some vibration transmitting through the floor because the UCA bolt contacts the floor board. I'll find a shorter one and swap it out. Then shell be perfectly smooth down the road

Look at all the air around those 33s. You should sell them to me and get some 35s like you know you want to
