ball joints in and knuckles on :wrench: getting closer... :brows:

D30 out and gone today. LAs and coils out and deliver them later this week. Picked up ball joints for the D44 so time to start putting it back together. Went to 4byFours in Fruitport and made up a set of spring hangers and looked at a few things and will be installing the D44 as soon as I finish putting it together. should be together by next week. and should be going in the following week. the shackle hanger made.... Then with a pic of my K&N filter on my Snorkle that I posted on 4WD's facebook page, I won a little package from them. And the calender has nice ladies on in it. :brows:

Well the D30 is sold and to be picked up on wed, so with that being sold and the LAs sold i should be able to get the last parts for the D44, U-bolts and ball joints and get the steering made up and get it installed under the jeep within the next couple of weeks. :D

them are the great staff of Twisted trails Offroad Park, they put on a good show, even had fireworks again this year.

For 4-wheel drive :popcorn: same principal applies to 2wd if just swapping out a new hub bearing assembling, just have no shaft to undo.

left side tranny lines. or inlet on the drivers side are on the rad from 97 and newer.

this guys has lots of good info that will help you. :thumbsup:

do you have a c-clip or non c-clip axle?

:agree: it's one thing going through some puddles, but if anything like me, I love river crossings and going in deep water, and deeper the water the more pressure that the water puts on your seals and always best to check or change your fluids after such outings. :thumbsup:

i can handle the yeast but no promise on the sugar making it from the road trip. :D

just run a separate tranny cooler from the left side. :brows:

yeah down hill cause of the junk @$$ axles I'm using, be fine once I install the leafs and other axles. :yes:

So finishing up little things before big run this sat so noticed trac bar a bit loose so checked that and a good thing too and thought I need to to just adjust my CA, so went to do that today and well guess I do need to adjust something. Pass LCA axle mount good side looks like this..... Drivers LCA axle mount in need of some adjusting... trac bar bolt I pulled out today and replaced... and during a break from messing with the jeep, wife made me a snack... So I need to replace the lca mount, as it sags on that corner and is seemingly ready to spit out my coil.

but where the he!! is my invite?

assuming this is the RK set up looking at the tie rod, so question, did it come with the knuckle bracket to allow the drag link to be set up in this design? :hmm:

you'll be redoing it. :thwak:

yep home brew 3" lift most likely.

are they solid circle? stocke will look just like any XJ, so look at one in a parking lot.

I may have a cap some where I know at one point I had a couple extras on the shelf. I'll see if I still do or not.

looks good man, did you scuff up the trim before paint?

have to find out, should be about $20 or so, have to peel a tire off it first. has no cap though.
