Trac bar had to go a few inches toward and I wanted a poly on booth ends so I whipped this out of an extra piece of 4x4 I had . I used one of the stock top bolts and welded the rest hope its strong enough. If not ill be doin some plating but that's okay!

Aleydic

Lit my boot and pants on fire welding lol

Aleydic

Finished all the tack welding and pulled it out! Looks good just gotta burn in brackets and get brakes

That boot looks like it might have an eagle globe and anchor on the other side. Project looks fun...

Aleydic

Brothers are both marines . Good hammy-downs!

XJGunny

Good deal, I use em for garage boots once they wear out too much to use in uniform. Where are your brothers stationed?

Aleydic

Ones been out for a wile he was over in the sand one one was working a prison in South Carolina

Aleydic

Burned in the front axle brackets and steering got a little paint

Aleydic

The tabs I welded to the diff housing for the upper control arm keep breaking off. My friend tells me I gotta heat it first so it bonds better . Ill be tryin that today

Aleydic

Almost ready for a test run .! Brakes and shortened the drive shaft

Aleydic

So my friend had some rocks set up at his place and was having a little wheeli. Party there so I brought it for a test run

Aleydic

So I "skimped " on a few things befor the test run
Stock diff covers
Stock jeep shafts
Trac bar no where near same length or angle of drag link
And no skid plates

Sure enough got death wobble and bump steer
Broke the front shaft
Slammed my t awe and cracked it
And smoothed my front diff cover

So post test run parts
Alloy USA diff cover
A shock
Another ujoint and shaft
And a tcase
Skid plate comming soon
