Default Project Redo, long arm time!!

I am redoing my jeep quite a bit. Its getting long arm, 3link, 35s, 456 gears, top chopped and caged. Should be quite a project but im looking forward to it. I will post pics as i go...
you guys got anymore ideas that would go along with this?


this is how it looks now, but not for long
chromoly ujoints for the front 30
solid rear diff cover for the 44
