  1. I picked up a set of 97+ mirrors today and put them on and also adjusted my tie rod,, not as bad but I still need an alignment after I get new tie rod ends all around and adjust everything Slowly but surely!
  2. It's hard to find time but I'll get it done! I still need to sort out my alignment issues and getthe bigger stuff done asap because what jeep doesn't have issues that take up most of the free time when you have to change a part or add parts :dunno:
  3. Got my truck inspected today, also got the alignment checked.... I have -1.5° of camber on the pass side and -.5° on the driver and way too much toe in on the pass side :roll: I'm trying to get my truck in tip top shape before march 30th because I'll be off to Rausch Creek offroad park! I have quite the list to take care of :help: I already greased everything and checked all the fluids Fix my alignment issues bolt down the tranny to the crossmember Make a mount and bolt down the front of my seat because it rusted away into nothing Things I'd like to do Make my high lift mount in the bed Install HIDs Paint the underside I have 19 days :peek:
  4. Just scrolled through your whole build thread, I absolutely love your truck!
  5. Hahah I have a girlfriend who loves my truck already :brows: which is hard to find around these parts! Most girls my age around here like the tuner/expensive car scene. I think the cars are nice and all but I would never own one! Back on topic! I've been reading some build threads and looking at some of my friends trucks.. pertaining to some nicer axles ;) I feel like a full width 8 lug 44 / full width 60 on 37s would be ideal for me, I haven't broken anything axle wise yet but I don't want to break stuff with 35s and plus 37s are cooler This of course would be down the road after I save up for it :oops:
  6. Can't wait to see some pics! I'm looking to get my truck on 37s
  7. Some stupid girl flying through a parking lot hit me yesterday :dunno: my 10 day inspection isn't even up yet from when I put my truck back on the road! She hit my tire and dented the rim a little I just bent it back with some pliers and it's still balanced fine, her bumper on her mazda 6 fell off though haha I ziptied it back on for her and after the officer came for the report and let me leave the girls friend/passenger added me on Facebook... :nuts: Anyway I'm giving my truck a bath and painting some stuff tomorrow :wavey:
  8. I zip tied this rooster with like foot long legs that flail in the wind haha all the fart can ricers around here hang little things off the back so I'm basically making fun of them :D
  9. Congrats Jim! Love reading your stories and seeing all your manches! :cheers:
  10. After I put the longarms in i did a home alignment and I know it's not the best you can get but it was fine for a while then the pass side started to get some camber, I'm thinking I'm due for ball joints too, might as well change the unit bearings while I'm in there! The front axle never hit anything when I crashed it and it's been wearing weird since before the accident, as I've only put 60-70 miles on my truck since! Oh yeah I Hit 120k miles today she's officially broken in haha
  11. sometimes the tops of the tires lean out and sometimes they lean in like they have too much camber, causing me really abmornal tire wear :fs2: My good friend has the same HIDs in his XJ, I can't wait to put em in!
  12. thats what the steering wheel is for pete :D
  13. Do I need ball joints :dunno: Picked up some shock pin eliminators so I can eventually run so go fast shocks and maybe air bumps :thumbsup: :banana: I'm surprised how beefy they are!
  14. Theres a Few of my friends and club members going march 31st, I plan in getting there Friday night, wheeling Saturday and head home Sunday. Also I'll be camping :waving: All are welcome to join!
  15. Thanks! I've been looking at brakelines too haha
  16. So where's the pics and what not of the new heaps!
  17. Thanks man! I'm gunna have to leave you some motivating words on your thread :D Just finished up my order for 5000k HIDs for my headlights. I ordered them from DDMtuning.com, also I should be doing some little things over the next week or so! I won't forget to post pics :wrench:
  18. My rear sat at about an 8" lift after I did my soa, after filling the bed with scrap a couple times it settled down and sits with the factory rake :cheers: Also I hated short arms on 6.5" lift I'm not sure if 8" is a good idea :ack:
  19. Thanks dude! Got more stuff coming soon :brows:
