[khwrx]

Yeah I gotta drill it myself

 

[spraypaintman]

Looks good man! I like the aluminum wheels!

 

[khwrx]

Thanks spray ! I'm leaning towards Heims. What you guys think . This is gonna be a duel purpose rig that ill be drive the family around in and to and from the trails.

 

[userbmx1315]

ive read pros and cons on both. i went with heims for simplicity. the TRE's have a dead spot in them and causes a lil wheel play.

 

[khwrx]

Oh ok cool thanks

 

[spraypaintman]

I ran the 7/8" chevy tre's on my last cj and it worked good plus they are at every parts store if you ever need one. Get some 1.5" quarter wall Dom for the tie rod and drag links.

 

[khwrx]

Not a lot done lately cause of Xmas . Pulled the t-case out yesterday and ready to put in the slip yoke eliminator kit. Question , what do you guys do with the vac port in the t case ? Cap it off ? And can I just pull all that vac lines off and chunk them

 

[khwrx]

Had a bad rear trans seal when I bought the jeep . Gotta get this skid cleaned up.

 

[Andy J.]

Them shiny parts look nice! Are those wheel spacers in the back? I think every Jeep I've ever worked on had a skid that looked like that.
