Hmmmm I should incorporate boat sides into my cage tie ins. Perfect excuse to postpone wheeling my rig...

Will what soft lines are you running off the calipers? I think that is where my problem lies, not necessarily with the nylon.

I believe in the front I'm running 88-98 1 ton chevy 4x4 front hoses, but I'm not positive. It's something very close to that though.

The rear I'm pretty sure are 96ish Grand Cherokee rear hoses. IIRC we got those for you but your calipers took larger banjo bolts and drilling out the block ends didn't go so well.

Yea my rears are 7/16 banjo. It's all good, NAPA's site has the ability to search brake lines by fittings and length so I should be able to get everything from them.

Very nice, did you bring your plasma to Nicks or did you do all that with a grinder/reciprocating saw?

Badass, I have to say that the pictures and video dont show how steep that climp really is, I had the pleasure I riding shotgun for the rollover. It was a blast. Recovery was pretty tricky
