I though the same thing but Iron Rock makes a full kit for 8.8 that includes an over axles truss for $199. That's pretty tough to beat

Still need a driveshaft flange adapter. I would rather do TNT UBE's and you can make shock mounts with 3/16 flat stock. Then buy a truss.

But the UBE alone is $140 (but it is sweet). He's saving for a wedding remember?

Your jeep is a beauty, man! Definitely an inspiring thread! I'm currently rolling around in a 93 xj, same color, and probably going to use some of your ideas.

Again, AWESOME WORK!

Hi there, if these will work or a 3" lift I will take them. I'll shoot you a pm in a little while asking how you want payment.

Thanks,

Been a while since I updated. Been super busy with wedding related activities so i've just been driving it.

Been doing some diagnosis and planning for some maintenance. Ordered some parts today from the local jeep dealer:
- Oil Filter Adapter O-ring kit to solve my leaking issue
- Intake/Exhaust Valve Seals to solve my oil burning issues
- New CCV Grommets to solve my blowby issues

Also sold my S10 back home, so I now have money to put towards:
- Rear brakes pads + drums because mine are shotttttt
- APN Exhaust Manifold + new o2 Sensor while i'm at it
- Steering box rebuild/seals since mine belches out fluid like it's its' job now
- New Locker Springs
- New Trans Mount
- Electrical System main circuit breaker
- Cap/Rotor/Plug wires

Also pretty sure my CAT is clogged with burnt oil residue and pieces of broken element, so add that to that list...
