I got the same for the YJ. I didn't replace the trans mount at the time, but I need to take a look at it. Good call.

I've been driving on broken stock mounts since august. If the trans mount wasn't already trashed, it is now lol

My ARB RD93 locker and Viair 450C came in today. Combined, I saved almost $400 (not counting free shipping)! They join the pile of donor 4.10 R&P parts. Waiting for the HD 29-spline axle shafts to come in. It's almost happening! Already planning for frame stiffeners for the next mod. It never ends!

Those welds are beautiful
They look strong, which is what matters. Sweet looking sliders, I want to build a set just like that. Did you have to trim the bottoms of the doors?

no trimming on the doors. just cut the rockers off and welded to the pinch seam and where the rocker make the 90 degree bend for the door.

yeah some of the welds don't look that great but most of them are on the bottom.

Just a normal fluid check, making sure everythings good. I've got a hiss coming from the intake side. Makes me want to dissassemble the intake and exhaust manifold and clean it all. Maybe some new injectors as well. Realized I have no fluid in my upper Rad hose, or coolant bottle. 0331 head and 170k miles? Ill be changing the oil tomorrow, hopefully its not milky or ill be enjoying my winter break swapping in a new head.

A neighbor walking his two Pomeranians asked "so you guys like Jeeps huh?"

I did mine two weeks ago. If I were going to do it again, I'd cut the doors.
