Finally got a new head unit. $93 referb on crutchfield can't argue with that for a nice kenwood. Best part is my 1997 jeep now has blue tooth and hands free calling.

No hands free in my Jeep, but I do have it in my 02 Z28. Believe it or not, the Camaro has more tire noise than the Jeep. Louder exhaust too. I put the mic on the top of the steering column. Works great.

Nice Jeep. How you like the ride quality on those leafs? Got a link? I need a leaf pack for my 90.

After getting rid of my worn out original leafs these zones feel pretty stiff maybe to stiff. Ive been doing some reading not only do I need to get it offroad for some brake in but my shackle angle may be causing the rough ride. It's not unbearable but not a Cadillac either.

Forgot you asked for a link. I bought all my suspension from http://www.rockridge4wd.com
They seem like good people. Message them they the vendor section for their best price.

Do you have a part number for the leaf springs? I looked on rock ridge and they don't list a part number. Want to make sure I'm looking at the right springs. I found a pair of Zone leafs on Amazon for $85?! I was looking at about $350 for Old Man Emu. I am curious to know the $260 difference.

I paid just over $300 for the set. I think the ones on Amazon don't include bushings. Are you looking for 3" lift springs or higher?

3" springs. I have shackle relocation brackets and extended shackles to make up the other 2".

Just email Eric or Miguel @ rockridge. I do a ton of shopping around and i couldnt find anywhere that could beat their price for leafs, bushings, ubolts and the plates + free shipping. They carry BDS also.

My crown Extended brake lines from quadratec showed up today. Got the blue ones to match my accent color. Seem like a real quality product. Don't be like me and assume that they will ship out from quadratec right away, they are made and shipped from crown. Took just under 1.5 weeks. Now I can get my brake job done.

Got the extended lines in and flushed the brake fluid out. Installed new powerstop rotors and ceramic brakes up front. With all my spare time I managed to change out the diff fluid with mobile1 synthetic. Got some focal component speakers and some 5x7's from a buddy and mounted them in also. Sounds awesome now. Will post up more pics tomorrow.

Looks good. I have new brake lines sitting in my kitchen that I need to install still. How long did it take you?
