Just my DD.

Short arms with drop brackets.
3" leafs with shackles and relocation brackets.

Nothing fancy.

It does shine up pretty nice.

Looks like the RK 3-link is going to be for sale. A new custom 3 link is going to replace it. It's just easier to package it all together with custom parts. The new upper link will be on the passenger side and likely through the floor.

The front is getting narrower. Trying to finalize tube work on the front.

I removed mine and I like the look better personally. Especially since it's so much more faded than the flares right next to them.

And put me on the list for the 3 link if you do sell. Looking to long arm my jeep.

Really loving this build! I want to do a lot like this to my 95 crawler but funds always seem to hold me back. Looking forward to see where this goes!

Thanks!

Yeah, funds aren't on my side either. Just doing a bunch of buying/selling wheeling and dealing to make things happen.

Plus TONS of free help from friends. Will is doing ALL of this fabrication for basically nothing. My buddy, Stump, is doing all the Machining on the adapter plates for for the crawl box for me for free. XJWonders is hooking me up with a deal on the spud shaft.
