It could be 5, the jks track bar is only $250.

Yeah, but it's a piece of shit. So you'd have to subtract that piece of shit from the shitload, leaving you one piece of shit short.

Come on man, I know you're a Rough Country coil spring fan boy.
Why not one of their track bars?
I'm sure @trailhugger has appropriate life insurance coverage.

I emailed Andy last night. He doesn't list TJs on the website (anymore??). I need to see if he can/will make something that doesn't hit the diff, pitman, or motor.
It's basic shit math. If you have a pile of shit, and you take one piece of shit away, you're now a piece of shit short.
F no. The RC 2.5" lift is a bargain. Same with the RC lowers, just weld a bung into one end and thread on a Barnes joint. But I'm not running their track bars.

Built a mount for my dads new shifter for his rig.
Couldn't find my rivet nut kit and tool.
Decided to drill a pilot hole, swage with tapered drift, then run the tap in with a drill. Boom threads in thin alum.
Enough talk, picture time.

Let my kids crawl around in my two 3rd gens while they pretended to wheel. It was excellent and I smiled so hard I think my cheeks hurt.

Washed the sami finally (along with the truck & tracker engine for swap prep). It's just so cute!

We decided to sandblast the wheels & cleaned up the welds. I planned to powder coat but have decided to just paint for now. Hopefully wheels will be done next weekend. Don't worry, they'll still be pink!

Rebuilt the king pins on the k5
That's a stainless steel shim I machined at school to add some preload to the kingpins
These you weld onto the kingpin and hit it with a BFH to bust them loose
Added some DOM to protect the zerks fitting not he bottom bearing cap

Installed some new shackle hangers, need to order some 7.25" shackles and moved the front axle forward for a better approach angle. I'm planning on buying another set of fenders and section them to make the wheel whee bigger and delete the side marker light. I'll replace it with a smaller LED one.
I've got about everything coming in tomorrow to get the engine back up and running. That'll be my weekend project.

Started the tear down & clean up on the 1.6 for the sami. I'm getting my ass kicked right now 
. @Mulishajoe went fishing & I just don't have the oomph...
On a side note: Gojo scrubby wipes are quite possibly my new favorite thing
