not much progress done but i did manage to get the 8 lug hubs on the front and found out that it will add add 2 inches to the width of the axle so i will order 2inch spacers for the rear .
had a liitle time today so i made these not too sure about them any comments.

Eh not really a fan of them.. but I don't think they look bad, just a litte too much for such a clean Jeep in my opinion.

last week i took and dedicated every night but wed. to the jeep and made some good progress .monday i finished the disc brakes on the 14bolt tuesday my freind a.j came over and set up the 456 gears for me .i used a solid spacer from ECG and seem to be the ticket for making it even easier to set up the rear gears .wed. i went to allaince hose and had billy make full flex lines for the disc brakes in the rear and cost was the same as rubber lines and hard tube would have been.thurs. got the 14 bolt underneath the jeep and measured and welded everything .friday was a parts finding day. today i bleed the brakes and drove it out in the sunshine . gonna order a new rear shaft the on i have naw has been moded to many time just gonna start with a new one from tattom driveline specs will be 1310 cv ,19 spline long slip with 1350 on the busy end . gotta finish some little things next week but should be able to finish it up .pics
