Looks great, dude.....what axles did you go with?/

on a different note....everybody is stretching their TJ/CJ.....its getting cliche;) ......now if someone SHORTENED their tj by 20 inches, that would be something.....:D

Looks good, but ... .

I hate when people say "stretched" when they actually just moved an axle extending the wheel base. "Stretching" to me implies, making body panels longer, making the frame longer and extending the wheel base.
Done with small rant, just a pet peave of mine.

Thanks for putting em up Nick!!
Not ba for 2 wheel drive.
So any way, heres whats been done so far:
Dana 60 Front (35spline inners 30 outers) w Triangulated Fourlink (Bootyfab)
Steering High Steer with Tie-rod behind the axle. (have the hydro assist in my garage. will install it soon)
Rear has been pushed back for a 104" wheelbase Triangulated Fourlink as well (Booty Fab and RK stuff)
Rear is a full float Dana 60 with 35 spline shafts.
Wheels are Hummer (HMMWV) double beadlocks
Tires are temporary, but are Good Year 37x12.50x16.5 MT (Military OZ) will be going to 39.5" Iroks

Whats left:

ARB front and rear along with 5.38 gears
Coilovers all around
New Transfercase (Looking at the Stak box)
Fuel cell

It was nice actually getting to drive it again. I put almost 200 miles on it today. Stopping every so often to inspect everything.

Big Thanks to Nick at POR for miscellaneos parts and pieces as well as the use of his Millermatic 251 (I dont think my little 135 was up for this project) Again above and beyond Nick!!

Also Thanks to the guys at Wheelers for the few harder to find item (rod end, heims, misc brackets etc.

This is stage 27 of an un ending project, but the good news is I will be able to make the CK run now in my own rig vs leading from the shotgun seat.


More to follow later. BTW Ill try and get some better pics. Nicks camere phoneworked great, put I think I cant hold still long enough for the picture to be clear
