Aha thanks man. It doesn't discourage me. It's just a forum thread.

We'll got a lot done but can't upload the pictures right now. I got new cross rails with gutter mounts and my rack re mounted, black hid projectors, clear markers, a majority of the underneath cleaned up and painted and flat bushwackers are ordered. The plan was to have the big stuff before school starts again and it's going pretty nicely. I got a bigger lift block(I know, I know) until I can afford the springs. My back is a mess right now. Pictures to come.

Yakima warrior with the extension. It's a great rack. Not huge on the look but it's an exspenive rack that I got as a gift so it's staying.

Oh and I've known for months now but I have the dana Trudy 5. So I'm really hoping it explodes and can do an 8.8 swap. That's probably the only way I'll be able to talk a family member into helping me with the swap.

We'll got a but done lately but sadly not really any pictures. Got bushwackers and clear signals and crappy *** projectors that look good. Went to the pick n pull today. There were a million zjs and a quite a few old model Cherokees and a whole whopping 1 new model xj. But I went with my cousin and in search of a v8 zj tie rod for both of us but out of like 20 zj there was only 1 v8 so I grabbed it. It was a nice zj too. Tranny cooler (which I forgot...) dana 44a and a whole bunch of stuff. So the rod swap went good until the tre bolt was spinning so I'm having a hard time getting it on. But I'm gonna get some pictures up.

So the pick n pull wp trip wasn't planned we just decided to go while we were over there so we weren't prepared and had no tools aside a dollar tree adjustable wrench and a screw driver. Got that rod out with a cheap wrench and an old shock I found. Print mind the odd face aha. [IMG][/IMG]
