Nice, got mine painted up too and hope to install the cross member tomorrow. Still waiting on the control arms but hope to have those parts early next week and an alignment by Friday for a Saturday jeeping event.

Cant figure out what the 4 bolt holes with nuts welded in on the front of the skid are for.

 

Bumper is done.. just need to clean, prime and paint.

 

Looks great , cant wait to see the 3 link install take a lot of pictures if you can .

 

Thanks, I appreciate it.

I'll definitely take some pics, any ones in particular you're looking for?

 

Bumper looks real good man!

 

First off, sorry for the poor quality pics. Hands were filthy but I wanted to snap a couple photos, I'll get some better ones later.

That being said, made some headway today. Got the new steering box in with the JCR spacer, bled the system and no more leaks!! The old steering box felt pretty good but was leaking from the input shaft.

Secondly, got the 3-link crossmember installed (aside from the tie in brackets that wrap around the side of the "frame") Everything bolted in nicely, had to drill and tap two 1/2" holes for the furthest forward bolt on the crossmemeber. Fit great over the top of my frame stiffeners.

 

Sweet! The anticipation of seeing your rig complete is killin me. Can only imagine how you feel! Are the links on the way?

 

Im definitely excited. Its been on jack stands since mid-december!!

According to my tracking number the Links should be here tomorrow. Not sure if I'll have time during the week to get them in. If not I will be installing it all this coming Sunday.

There is still quite a few things I need to get done. Build a rear bumper, bed liner on the lower doors/rockers, etc, but those will all come in time. Ill just be happy to have it back on the road/trail.

 

Definitely. If I could just get the motivation to get off my behind and do some damn wrenching, I'd be good. Only problem is, when I have time to be lazy, that's all I want to do. Then I curse myself after the fact.

 

That means mine should be here either today or tomorrow. That means mine will be on the trails by Saturday.

 

UPS confirmed two packages have been delivered to my house.

Now I have to wait to get home from work so I can dig in to those suckers.

 

 

This did show up on my lunch though. 20" auxbeam bar with genuine cree LED's. It's a cheap bar but they are suppose to be really nice for the price.

Going to mount it under the center hoop on my bumper. Just need to fab up some tabs and weld them on the hoop.
