Im not so sure about the 99 intake anymore. I asked around and saw JP mags myth busting thing and I dont think im going to get it. But im still planning to get the 703s

Thanks. It came with the police package. Actually held water really good insted of letting it soak through the floor. Sadly it didnt stop it.

And I will try on the prep details. Still not completely clear on prep myself. I swore I would never bedline the floors. Then I found- the rust. I plan on doing it weekend after next. Just waiting on funds to free up.

I think im going to use the baby powder trick that people use on MJs.

You need to start a build. Ill be your first subscriber

 

Not sure if I really need the steering box. Mine actually steers really good so I see no reason to replace quite yet. Im only 3 inch lift and 31s. But not for long...

But I do plan on the tie rod.

Thanks dude, I will be starting my thread before too long. Been busy fixing things, and now Rubicon Express coils are backordered for who knows how long, so I'm thinking of canceling my order and going with something else. Things will really start rolling once I get these springs in.

Do elaborate on the baby powder trick! I haven't heard of that one. I have some rust in the door corners that I need to take care of and I'm going to rhino-line it all, and the doors up to the trim (removing eventually). The salt-belt here in Central PA is brutal.

 

Im sure the springs will be worth it. I heard RE is great.

You put baby powder on ther spots where you think its leaking from, and it will leave a trail of baby powder on the inside and will lead you right to the leak next time it rains. Or waterhose.

 

Interesting...I might have to look into that.

I also find it interesting that the UpCountry package sports the Dana 35. You're going to swap that out, right?

 

Its because of the ABS. Thats why it has a 35. I am going to swap it out eventually, but for now, no. Since im staying 31s, unless i find 16 inch rims, i have no real reason. Especially since the gears appear to be in great condition.

Also the 35 has a actual working LSD. Thats another plus. But im not going to put any money into it.

 

Well I aint going to be doing much this weekend. Not enough money. But the weekend after that some big stuff should be coming.

 

Nice. My coil springs are on the way and also ordering Rampage H4 headlight upgrade and going to start gathering rust repair and rhino-line supplies this weekend....OK time for my build thread haha

 

Sweet. Im going to prime my floor this weekend and get it ready for my hurculiner. And i gotta get ready for the locker I may be getting.

Post the link to it here!!!

This build isnt going to be very fast. Im a teenager and Jeeps are expenisive.

 

Doesnt look like im going to get much priming done this weekend.






And heres a little side project im working on. More info later.

 

nice build!

 

Thanks! Right now its kinda boring but hopefully it will pick up soon.

 

Post

Nice build

 

Thanks bro. So when you gonna update Night Krawker?
