rear axle is pulled, and ready for 8.8 swap. also going to gear to 4.88's at the same time more to come...

coils are stock...

Carpet is gone...

Thanks for the advise on keeping the donor, but I'm almost 100% there will be nothing else needed. The only thing left of it is a shell, leaf springs, front upper control arms, and brake lines. Everything else was stripped out and is being stored.

yup, I grab the fuel pump as well...

Thanks, finished stripping the XJ last night. Rolled it on to the trailer and going to pull axles out tonight. Then its off to the bone yard.

What is the reason behind needing the steering column?

I have searched for hours on this topic here, and have found lots of helpfull information. Just wanted to make sure I'm not missing anything before the donor is hauled off to the scrap yard. I'm starting with a 88MJ, 4wd, 2.5l 5sp. I have a 100% non-molested 95XJ. 4.0L AW4 Plans are to pull motor, tranny and t-case. It seems motor is bolt in ready with the frame horns? Pull complete wiring harness (front to back). I know dash to rear harness is not plug and play. throttle cable (gas pedal?) radiator, shroud and brackets Frame Horns So is there anything else that I am leaving out? Thanks,

hey, do i know you? :hmm: :thumbsup:

Looks like we are planning on heading down agian on June 19th and 20th...Feels good wheeling again 3rd trip to the badlands this year... :thumbsup:

Been a while since I updated anything, but not much as changed other than it got primered all one color and got a sweet deal on 35" MTR's (a buddy of mine traded me them for my 33"s Pro comp MT's) Here is a poser shot from this last weekend at the Badlands...

I would have to check but i believe they are the weld on wedges

don't know the year but came out of a bronco, no locker, havent taken apart to see what gears and needs normal TLC that a axle would need after sitting for a bit

What would you guys say a high pinion d44 is worth? thanks

I've seen those ones in person and there are pretty nice, but still way to much. I'll set up a tent any day before spending that kinda cash.
