gpt everything finished over the weekend. I had her out romping through some mudd and it all works perfectly! so friggin happy i can drive it again! reaming the knuckles wasnt so bad after all, and im very pleased with the handling quality.

Also replaced both rotors and brake pads, realized the ball joints on the bottoms are about to be toast...wich is a real PITA job, and my clock spring is shot. Why do parts have to be so jealous, fix one thing and something else says, HEY **** FIX ME TOO...

But regardless im pumped, whos ready for a wheeling trip?

 

me me me (not really but mild stuff sure!)

I know a bunch of people are going up to Rausch on the 25th - I'm probably going to join in as a passenger at least. If you want we can go up together and i'll throw you some cash for gas

Possible, have to see if someone can cover my shift at the fire house

 

do ittttt

 

just saw the whole build and dude it really looks awesome

 

Your build makes me envious...but stoked for my plans this summer as long as I can balance my money well to have some for the fall semester (im gonna be broke in about 2 weeks for the rest of this spring )

 

Also, for your front bumper did you get the unibody tie-in brakets and the steering spacer? or just do without them?? Do you know if theyre really worth the additional $$???

 

if you have Drings or a hitch on the bumper, you def need the tie in brackets, or you'll rip the bumper off the first time you pull from it. Even if you don't - highly recommended. The stock bumper isn't attached very well.

 

Thanks man, always nice to get some good feedback!

Dont be envious, build it better

And yes i did purchase them, I plan on getting a winch mount for the receivers so i can pull from the front or the rear as needed.

+1... very true. Better to spend to 40 whatever dollaz nowz insteadz ofz afterz thyz bumperz ripz offzz

 

i want to go to 35, anyone have an idea how to move the rear wheels back? my front control arms are adjustable so thats easy enough, but what abut the back??????? im at a loss

 

simply put...you can't.


Unless you swap out the leaf packs for a set made for a different truck that have the center pin hole in a different spot, and you'd have to move the rear mount back as well.


But you don't need to to fit 35s. May have to just cut a bit more, or make sure you're bumpstopped enough in the back

 

selling the rig? Say it isn't so!

. What color is this paint? In what color would I request this paint from auto paint dealer or factory?

 

^ "Rescue Green Metallic". It's a factory JK color but any paint store should be able to mix it up.

Paint Code is "PJR"
