HA! on a budget. I dont even think Im going to run them for now, prolly just run some foam shaft stops on the C/Os until I get everything dialed in. then maybe add them for go fast(er) reasons.

Thanks! Do it up! I borrowed a lot of ideas from others! That's the great thing about these forums.

Update this thing so I can see your tube work. I'm getting anxious for chopping mine up. I think I am going to copy Ross's work on NAXJA. How close is your upper link mount on your axle to hitting your oil pan? I had to cut mine a hole down.

got a little bit of wiring done, hybrid cage setting back on the jeep, b pillars and harness bar in. hoping to get some triangulation going on that this weekend, and maybe start some tube work for the rear.

also after talking with @94xjsport94 i decided to go with a dodge 2500 master cylinder as my braking performance was lacking big time. swapped it out and got the system bled last night, i actually have a pedal now, and it locks down about 1/2 throw compared to going to the floor that is a huge improvement. cant wait to actually test them and see how they work.

98 dodge 2500 master cylinder was a direct fit for me with the exception of the push rod adjustment, probably could have gotten away with to stock rod threaded out quite a ways, but i had a 1/4 - 28 x 2 bolt i threw in. threaded all the way in, then backed out maybe 1/4 and it seemed perfect - did not start the jeep though, so we will see once vacuum is applied if its still acceptable.
