I definitely will. It will be a little while until I do. I need to figure out measurements on what I need/want.

Thanks guys.

It's broke. I went out today for the closing weekend at Uwharrie and broke a bunch of ****. 9" shaft, bearing cap and bearing. I also put a hole in the 9" housing. Had a good time though and that's all that matters. I also bought a new set of wheels so I don't destroy lips any more.

New wheels lookin good. How far are you from Charleston, SC? I'm at school with the Navy here for the next couple years and I'd like to see this thing in action once I get my jeep down here and the motor re-built.

Yukon 1541h 9" shafts, bearings, seals, and new backing plates from Dave's offroad supply should have the Zj back together before the weekend!

I got to work on her today with a buddy welded up the hole in the 9" then cut out the old bearing races. Then the fun task of cleaning out the housing and prepping it to put the 3rd member back in. I got the third back in then put the brakes back together and slid in the new shafts and bearings. All in all it went smooth and according to plan. I think I have a broke hub up front though ill go through it this week and see. I took it for a fun 70 mph test drive down my road and she's doing great. Now I just need my shocks to come in and ill be set! Project Less is more 96 ZJ-imageuploadedbytapatalk1360454373.353187.jpg
