Nice rig man! Always love seeing fellow WJers. Can't wait to see the lift and sliders installed.

Guest, UPDATE We went through the site migration runbook and completed all steps. We will need to complete the migration next week, but will leave the forums up for the weekend. A few days after maintenance, a major upgrade revision to the forum site will occur.

Looks like I may not have to install till Christmas time. Work is crazy busy and my lower back is acting up again. :(

Finally got some time to trim my front bumper. I know its nothing special but I'm just glad I was able to do something to my Jeep. I think they look good, and no more rubbing. I do need to put the finder lining back in too. I think after my lift and rock slides are on I'm going to move my washer fluid tank. I've seen people swap it with the ZJ. This way when I make my front bumper I will have a bit more clearance.

Took a few days off work so I can install the Lift and Rock Sliders. I'm so stoked that I can FINALLY put them on. Going to try doing a time-laps so wish me luck.

Here are some pics of my friends and I doing the lift this weekend. I have some time laps pics and videos that I am trying to compile into one video. Ill post up here when done, but here are some pics for now.

Below is the new location for the front long arms. It mounts with the transmission cross-member.
After that I (my friend Jeff) needed to grind off the old one. No going back now. :)
Then all the old stuff from the from end came off

It drops the tcase and a-arm to keep the driveline angles all good.
Influencer II
But shouldn't that fancy new driveline aleviate the need for one?
Well wait you said a arm too. Insteresting. Very interesting.
Beautiful none the less

Im returning the driveline. I got it thinking I did not have the double cardan joint, but in 2002 all WJ's had them. Now I can spend that money else where.

Ah so a sye then? Then you could really get away from the tcase drop :) or buy the high clearance tcase crossmember (not sure if you have it)
Sorry...I'm nit picking a rig that ain't even mine haha

New update on my WJ. After we removed the heads it was obvious that they have been off before. They should not have been puck back on this jeep! I was very much upset. Today I received a set on re-manufactured heads that I will be putting on my rig. with any luck it will be up and running in the next week or so. Here are some pictures of the old heads.
