Update: Got my brake lines installed and bled...I actually drove this from Alecs shop to B-burg one night about 2 weeks ago...talk about a puckered up asshole...not the best ride with no shocks at each corner and no sway bars 
...but it drives really well when the road is smooth. I actually had it up to about 55mph. I think once I get the shocks installed it will ride great.
Peter sold me some Bilsteins 5100s
To Do:
HopeFully this weekend or next I can get my shocks installed and mount my ram for my hydro assist.

Not much of an update but...I cleaned up my skid-row gas tank skid I robbed from my old green xj. Stripped it down primed it then put 3 coats of Duplicolor bedliner on it. Hopefully it will hold up for a bit.

Hell yeah you can help! My plan is to get back to b-burg around 2 tomorrow afternoon then I plan on wrenching all night and sunday. I need to mount my shocks, finish mounting steering ram and bleed system, install front bumper and bleed the brakes one more time. Oh ya I also need to cut and sleeve my front driveshaft. But my number is 757-784-1441 shoot me a text and I will give you a call when I get in town tomorrow.CJonLP wrote:You grilling out this weekend?

John and Charles helped me out on the jeep we got a good amount done.(Thanks again!) We got the front shocks mounted, front drive shaft sleeved, winch and bumper installed. I swapped out my 4.5" coil springs for some 5.5" springs to compensate for the bumper weight but after getting it all together I think its too tall up front I will most likely put the 4.5" springs back in there. Stables has some pictures hopefully he will post them up
