I'd like to hear a few more people say their opinion. I may very well just set up a set of quicker discos when I do the front.

As for the BPE, I'm still a little unclear as to what they're for and how they work, maybe a link to a writeup.

bar pins are how the rear shocks attach to the unibody they are bad about breaking and the bolts tend to sieze and break when you try to remove them. now bar pin eliminators are a perminate fixture that bolt to ur unibody and instead of attaching them to the unibody using the bar pin you attach them to the BPE.

I wish I had pictures of my old windshield. The cracking was pretty rediculous.


Drove it out in the snow, laughed at the stupid people, loved having 4wd, almost got hit (stupid jackass in an audi cut me off, came about 4in away from hitting me. I almost let him taste my front bumper against his door panels ), drove around in a field, stalled it trying to climb out of the field, had to take the long way around. Parked it and then spent about 5 mins deciding if that leak under my jeep was jeep fluid or water.... I'm going back out there to check it again, it's making me nervous.
