Last weekend Abe tossed in a harness bar for me , I had put the 5 point harnesses in the Jeep . Today I built an antiwrap bar for the Jeep an installed an Artec Racing Quartcrate for the center console.

Since the last update I have installed the aluminum steering , And took the jeep out to 5mile for a quick shake down. I did ound some things I need to address. (Front shock mounts , front driveshaft length , And need to change the misalignment spacers on the draglink. )

Cool Rig, I dig those 4x4 Vans !

My Aluminum steering links were finished yesterday.

It is but I think the WJ knuckle swap priced most people out of the market the WJ brakes are about the same size an more bolt on/ cost effective I know Kendall was bummed when he found out I had these when he was looking

Almost done the Soa. Just a couple things left. I was really hoping to run the tierod otk but the tubing is pressed up against the leafs with how I have the caster set. Oh well its not the end of the world I'll sacrifice the height of the tierod to have good road manners .

I started on the front axle yesterday its almost out of the Jeep. I will probably have it out of the jeep in about 20mins when i get back to wrenching . My kid sent these pics to me that he took the other night . I'm hoping to have the front done by Saturday or Sunday. So I can get my...

The truss an anti wrap bar mounts are burned in, pinion angle is set, perches are tacked into position an it's sitting on its own weight. Throughout the week I'll pull the housing back out finish welding the perches, An cut off the old perches , relocate the shock mounts further up on...

Man , I wish I was that young still. I miss wrenching with my father. I brought in the child labor for the crappy part haha. He wants to be a mechanic/fabricator so he's gotta learn how to prep an axle !

Today I started my soa. I'm hoping to finish the rear Tomorrow. Then next weekend I'll start the front so I can measure for my draglink an have it machined. I would have had the rear done tonight but, I forgot I had a prototype truss. An I didn't like how it was going to sit so I had...

Just a little but its pretty much a fully polished turd. I'm fairly easy on the throttle so I'm not super worried. I'm sure it'll have the sterling and a 60 under it before these tires wear out my 35s lasted 8 years

Got the 37s and 17" wheels installed last week.

Last weekend I needed to replace the front brakes on my YJ an noticed a little play in the oem Knuckle. Which ment it was time to get off my rear an toss on some upgrades that have been kicking around on the shelf for a few years. ( Reid 30-44 conversion knuckles w/ Artec Arms and double...

I just saw this today I might have to replace my Old SCX10 Dingo https://www.axialadventure.com/product/1-10-scx10-iii-jeep-cj-7-4wd-brushed-rtr/AXI03008.html

I would say 14-18 for a JKU would be the best range to look for.

Yes I will be using an antiwrap bar mounting it to the a, artec prototype Apex 8.8 truss I also have an XJ but i havnt had it on the road in a few years its on a 3.5" franken lift front and rear lockers on 35s with Terrys (Rigidco) Bumper and sliders an jcr fuel tank skid

I was checking out your YJ at trail hero, when it was parked at the comp, I'm glad I stumbled across this build thread !

The heavy arched springs don't articulate or ride too well. My previous Yj which I should have kept years ago was Soa an I really liked how it performed an rode.

That looks like it'll be a better setup for you Dan, You know the ZJ crowd will send you death threats for cutting up a 9er grille haha !
