The cage will be shortly. I have my tubing, material, and design. Now I need the time lol.
First thing first though is I need a Durango box cause I snapped mine clean off the uni body on winch hill lol. Anyone have one they want to sell?

Thanks man!
I pulled my old steering box out today. My durango box will be in tomorrow. Also, I am doing a hydro assist for it
. After wheeling hard this weekend, I need the hydro assist for steering on the rocks better. When I put the new box in, I am going to "sandwhich" the unibody there with 1/4" plate steel.

Good news and bad news: The good news is that the durango box is in, and I got the tube bender out... so stay tuned. The bad news is that because the durango box is bigger, if I hooked up the hydro assist, my steering would be slightly delayed. So If I have any issues with this box on the rocks, I am going to get a stock XJ box and set that one up with the hydro. This box is getting braced also.

I got some cage work done today.
Just waiting on the weather to quit raining so I can finish it. The rest will be done hopefully next weekend.
