That is what I did :oops: . I will give it a try your way and see that helps. Thanks, Rich

If you still have the rear height-sensing valve -- this won't help. The factory setup is biased to send virtually zero braking force to the rear wheels when the bed is unloaded. That sucks, I thought I had an answer. Is there a way to trick the valve into believing it has a full load? I zip-tied it up, but is still refuses to engage. I may just have to remove it :roll: .

Thank you for posting this information. I hope this corrects my lack of stopping power. - Rich

Could you make it a sticky? How about a thread in the DIY forum? I can't find it. Thanks, Rich

The day I got her-> Latest picture - not yet complete ->

Yep, I did. Look here for the write-up http://comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopi ... c&start=90

Looks like I'm going Saturday, but not with the MJ. I will be hitching a ride in a V8 powered YJ :D. I will be sure to stop by your tent - Rich

hmm. I dunno. Also didnt know there was a limit so I will cease n desist on them. :oops: No limit on posts - I know that I want to see all of your progress pics under one thread :brows: . This way I do not miss one moment of the transformation. Looks good x2 by the way

Last thing I needed to read today :cry:. I am very sorry to hear about that - he was a handsome dog.

:cheers: It sounds Great . Congrats on a job well done - Rich

Awesome! Thanks for the idea - Rich

Was the cancer caused by huffing the Disco Purple paint? :rotf:

Welcome to the club :cheers: . Looks like a nice MJ. We will all be ready to help out with your swap questions when you get back from Iraq - Rich

Very nice looking. How do you like the full time NP242? The are a few tricks that you can use to get that contact paper off without damaging the paint if you decide to do so. :cheers: - Rich

:eek: I am so glad you posted pictures. Crazy - Rich

I had the same problem. I corrected it with the sway bar relocation brackets from JKS. You can see the pictures on page 9 of my build-up page here -> http://comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopi ... &start=120 . I used the V8 ZJ steering also - sans the drop pitman arm. Both MJ/ZJ set ups hit the passenger side after the lift - I stayed with the ZJ steering - Rich

Wow, this one might be close enough for me to test the MJ out at - I am not sure of the dependability yet. Are we just tossing ideas out, or are we ready to set up dates for a Southern Pow Wow? - Rich

The RE sway bar disconnect’s are on now, and WOW what a difference they make in the handling! I can actually say that this jeep drives nice. Now I feel confident in driving the jeep anywhere, not just to the shop and back. Here are a few pictures of how it looks -> One more thing I can scratch off my to do list - Rich

I am so glad we got rid of the inspections around here. I hope you figure it out. Sorry to hear about your loss. I know it is too late now, but why didn't you use the vent window? Do you have the one piece style? - Rich

It was bring your axle to Dave’s weekend . Dave is a fellow Jeeper/good friend who has every toy Miller sells. He invited me over to help him and Bwatsoncj set up a 9 inch rear end for a TJ. I got there early so Dave could weld up the axle tubes on my custom Dana 60 axle for my Scrambler - > After welding the axle tubes on two Dana 60 axles, Bwatsoncj showed up with the project axle. The owner enlisted these guys to set up the axle to work with his Jeep TJ. The Mad4WD bracket kit included all brackets to allow the use of this axle to work on the rear of the TJ -> The kit included everything BUT the instructions for the bracket mounting locations. Thank gosh Bwatsoncj had the foresight to bring the Sh#@$% Dana 35 along for a model. After repeated measuring – re-measuring - triple confirming locations, we were able to tack weld everything on -> The owner of this awesome axle is going to reinstall the tacked up axle to check for placement and fit before the final welding is preformed. At the end of the day I able to get these guys to work on my JKS relocation sway bar disconnect brackets. I removed the factory Brackets -> Then Dave welded on the two inch higher JKS Brackets - Finished - > Next weekend when we return to finish the Nine Inch, I will have Dave weld on my LCA Skids while I straighten the LCA. :cheers: Thanks Dave! I will have to update this post with pictures of the disconnects and sway bar on when I get the time to hook them up - Rich

That thing is cool, Yes! Offer $400 and see if he bites - Rich

Maybe you can answer a question for me? How could lifting a solid axle vehicle cause the camber to change? :nuts: ? I know that the design of the Rubicon Express lift w/Drop Brackets lifts the truck "x" amount and keeps the axle close to the stock position {just 1" forward and 5.5" down} . I just doesn't follow logic, but yet it is true :headpop: . {Disclaimer - I did toss in a new front Dana 44, but it uses the 30 outers and is said to be identical} I am now thinking that the lift just exposed an existing problem? - Rich

I first learned about them on NAXJA -> http://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.p ... all+joints. I used the Napa part number 264-2072 to correct my Negative 1.5/1.4 camber. - Rich

Your idea of correct is different from mine. The other possible way to make the adjustment is with the Napa camber adjusting kit.

I had the same problem. I fixed it using Napa adjustable camber shims. The write up on my camber fix is on page 7 of my build-up thread here -> http://comancheclub.com/forums/viewtopi ... c&start=90 At least you have another option if the alignment fails to correct your problem - Rich
