What have you done to your rig today?

Looking good ram. I'm helping a friend with a full steel body kit on eb. What a nightmare...

There is nothing easy on EBs... Nothing is straight and body panels don't fit the way they should, replacement or original!
 
New radiator *again* and pulled the pan to put in some new rod bearings to keep from revving it higher to ignore the rattle.

Finished fully welding the 2 x 6 rockers and full 3/16 frame stiffeners ans Got this xj finally off the homeade rotisserie and the custom 4 links done to make it a roller. Haha.

Now I can move it out of the way to finish the suburban turned avalanche behind it.

Do you have or going to have a build thread on this?

Plan to have a thread on both of them eventually. Not enough progress lately to justify creating one yet.

Suburban is bobbed and dovetailed front and rear, on tons 39s and propane. Full cage, qnd the rear is now an avalanche.

XJ plan is one tons 42s with 350/400/205. 42s, 16" travel front and rear, linked, cage and still under 6' to roof at ride height.

Have you seen this build: 91 with links and stuff - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum. Nothing crazy, but awesome utilization of an XJ.

Id like to see more info on the rotisserie also.
 
Over the last week I have finalized most of the front 3 link, mounted up the coilovers, and built a TC PS mount that allows the compressor to stay mounted.

Yesterday, I finished rewiring 40 years of rats nest on my dads tractor and mounted up a 12" LED bar. Also figured out how to fit 2 Group 31 batteries in a 2nd Gen Cummins.
 
Cleaned up the cut, ground down the ring gear for clearance, and test fit the new bottom plate. This will gain about 1.75" of clearance over a stock 14bolt.
