Whenever you ready bro .
I'm heading over to him later to have the Jeep aligned and get the tires mounted.

 

this build is awesome! i love that you didn't take any shortcuts. thats the same way i want to build mine up. looks great. detailed pictures.nice links to tutorials and writeups. excellent!!!

 

Thx.
I'm glad its helpful to you.

 

wow.. very very helpful.. Do I even want to know the total cost of everything? Matters to some, and not to others. I myself am cost conscience.

Magnificent write up!

 

Thank you!

You won't believe how much time i spent on researching deals

My first $1000 (be it lift kit or tires) spent was VERY VERY tough (items was in my shopping chart for at least 6 mo, everyday i look at the cart and ask myself.....should i? ), but once the jeep starts transforming, the rest is easy.....Just Empty Every Pocket!

A little post installation inspection....




User error?
Floor's dry, so i assume is minor.
Removed TC fill plug making sure there was enough fluid. Checked!

While i was at Adamsdriveshaft getting my alignment and tires mounted, i got James to look at it at the same time.

Here is an experience i would like to share with you....
I was expecting to get a replacement seal since i did the install myself, but James went ahead and got his guy to replace the seal as well as the yoke.

Great customer service James!
Keep it up!

Here is a link to his site for those who are interested.

 

Hey man, got a question for ya. When taking off your valve cover how did you get to that back right bolt? I'm having trouble getting to it

 

Similar to this

 

Yeah I was having a hell of a time because I didn't have a flex head socket or extension. Finally got it though, can't seem to get the valve cover off though. It is catching on both the water pump hose and part of the fuel rail

 

A little poser shot with my lift and tires installed.

Holy crap, nice transformation!

 

Thank you.....just need to use some elbow grease and alot of patient and time .

 

Wow. Mines next!! Haha.

What size tires are you running again?

 

Those are KM2 32x11.50x15 on 8x15 wheel with 3.75bs.
Can't comment much (15 miles so far) but definitely good for covering up whatever engine noise you have .....and trimming the bumper caps .

Saw these 31's on CL, thinking about changing...

 

Those all terains last forever man if you aren't don of your km 2s you should snap them
