The top is longer to provide more room for joint movement without doing a sye I suppose.

Up by the t-case. Destroyed the shaft. Glad it didn't pogo me. I pulled over as soon as I felt the vibes but it was to late

We're rocking 3 stop lights in town and a single caution light in my community. Your wife would beat you im sure.

Unfortunately, not yet haha. That will show up in this thread if I remember when I do though...Thanks for your concern haha...

Also, thanks bheath. I love it. It will be used to drive to school as soon as I get my license pay for my parking spot (And I need to replace the leaf packs...only reason it's my favorite pic is that it is slightly flexed on my super awesome driveway and looks less saggy than normal.) I could get some real good flex pics stock or even slightly lifted on the other more uneven parts of my driveway haha

My O2, i know you'll probably lift it on up but i say 2"budget boost and some nice 31's on JK rims and leave it alone. Treat it right and it'll treat you right. Keep it clean man.

Actually I do plan on keeping it fairly low with the lift. I'd rather get more quality parts and do it right and have a lower lift than have a bad quality cheap massive lift. But I plan on doing maybe between 1-3 inch lift packs since I have to replace them anyways, and coil spacers (new coils if I can save enough) for the front. But I do plan to keep it clean haha...I wash my Jeep and my parents' cars waaayyy more often than they do just because I like clean cars. Don't judge me...I do let the jeep turn brown in the winter though, just because I don't want to spray it down and then have the doors freeze shut...

Made some window guards, because I was bored!

Started with old bunkbed rails.

Ended up with this.
Finish other side tomorrow.
