made some progress...front axle is pretty much under the jeep now, control arms are installed, also just about done with axle side track bar mount.






TrailRateThis gave me a spacer that will work perfectly for my klune as well, so ill be installing that and the dana 300 tomorrow if i can find some studs for it. plan for the weekend is to get it on all fours, get a track bar and 2 driveshafts built for it with some help from rredalty. the end is in sight!

appreciate it guys...im learning as i go. lots of research online, as this is my first major build.

track bar is pretty much done. 1.5 1/4 wall dom tubing, heim joints at either end. both mounts are made from 1/4" as well. axle side mount may need to be changed a bit, as i dont have my steering in so i had to kinda guess at the angle (thats why i made it pretty tall, it can be cut down later once i match the trackbars angle to the draglink)
