Tons of progress in a short time, looks great already. Can't wait to see it with the tires on. What rear Axel did you guys go with?

Sneak peek with tire rolled under. Will be a lil wider than this when mounted.
Disc conversion and upgraded shafts.
We also came up with a good way to connect factory parking brake cables to the zj discs. I never seen this done before may make a post on the main board. No drilling , no looping, nothing completly bolt on.

Sub'd for this build. My dad helped me towards the end of my lift install as well, and my oldest is 4 and she helps with the simple things. She loves trail runs though. I took my dad on a few trail runs several years ago in Utah with my last XJ and Xterra... I think i scared him
He has yet to go on a run in this XJ

I think he has 2 clamps though. I saw it a year ago when I got the conversion for mine (that I somehow misplaced the backing plates for). Hoping I didn't toss them with the box of scrap metal I had.
Actually, looking at the picture now, I see the hook on the parking brake part. I thought you just ran the cable with the clamp. Maybe I'm mistaken?? Is that another piece?
