So a bit of an update buying a truck and trailer for the jeep after the Xj is built. Looking forward to having the towing capabilities to go where I want. I'm learning how to weld this year so I don't have to rely on everyone else. But it's coming along picked up some tube for my steering 1.5" .380 wall for the tie rod and 1.5" .250 wall for drag link and track bar buying Heims for all of it and Also lookin at getting tube for my cage I'm ready for the season just need to get my jeep done!!!!

A suggestion Seth.
Apply a light coat of anti-seize to the threads and install the heims into the bungs before you weld the bungs in.
