Front axle should be going in later on today...plasma'd out all my brackets last night, finished building my lower links, and mocked it up. Will be mounting my 38 sx's to my new mrw beadlocks tonight as long as I have time :bounce2:.

More updates soon...
 
This is the guy from Windrock with the bobbed/ boattailed MJ on 38.5x14.5 SX's and full hydro. The build looks good, Only thing I would have done is pull the rear back some more for a little added WB and to make use of the comp cut. Are you going to have any issues with the rear hitting the forward wheel opening?
 
Thanks man. Well I thought it was going to push it further back than it did. I moved it 6" back from stock and since I stretched the front I'm at like a 114" wheel base so I dont really want to go any more. I don't think i'll have any issues with it hitting there though.
 
Updates.....steering, more fender cutting, finished the front 8 lug conversion, and its sitting on its own again! I ended up buying an entire chevy 44 that was 8 lug...trashed the ford 8 lug stuff.

I'm still lacking shocks, hydrolic assist, gotta put my new tranny and t-case in, brake lines, driveshafts, bumpstops/limit straps and some more cutting here and there. Getting close though
