Finally. I pulled the black jeep into my buddies shop today to install all the stuff I have been piling up over the last 8 months as money has allowed. I think I have enough to get it going for now.
Here's the list:
Rubicon Dana 44 rear axle, 35 spline Ten Factory chromoly axles with matching ARB locker. 4.88 gears, Poly Performance HD brackets.
Poly Performance rear shock outboarding kit/mounts. (gotta cut my frame, yikes! )
PORC slip yoke eliminator with Tom Wood's CV shaft.
Undercover Fabworks steel high clearance TC skid.
Advanced Adapters transfer case linkage relocation bracket.
Rusty's adjustable control arms w/flex joints. (I know, they were cheap, and will get me going until I decide on a 4 link or full set of Currie CA's $$).
Motive Gear 4.88 ring and pinion and rebuild kit for stock LP D30.
Front Savvy Black Magic brake pads and Centric premium rotors.
Savvy aluminum gas tank skid.
Moog V8 Grand Cherokee steering.
Rusty's 3" rear springs to match the front. I will cut down the 2.25" rear budget spacers to re-level out the front. Probably .75".
Nifty in cab winch switch that a friend of mine makes and sells on the MCE website. Will relocate my bashed and damaged solonoid box under the hood.
Trail Gear rock sliders with step to replace the lame frame mounted nerf bars.
Dynomax turbo cat-back exhaust system.
That's what is going in now. What I have left:
I am in need of a Or-Fab or Rock Hard cage upgrade. Have not decided which one yet.
I have a HP D30 from a Cherowagon still sitting in my garage that I scored for free. It needs to be rebuilt with upgraded shafts and a ARB locker when I can afford to buy them.
So much more stuff to do than that. I don't think I'll ever be done.
I will take pics as progress is made, and probably will have lots of questions for you guys too. I am happy to finally get this project going.
