Only suggestion I would like to make, if you don't mind, would be to flip the draglink so it is on top of the pitman arm (which sucks because you would have to get another arm to do it). Your trackbar and and draglink angles are way off and I think you will find handling to be very irratating, expecially on a long drive. The flip will be far from perfect, but a heck of a lot closer to parallel. The OTK draglink is what hurt your angles. If you used the stock XJ inverted Y steering, your angles would be fine. Just a little constuctive criticism if that's ok. The rest looks pretty great though, good job.

Testing the setup... :shock:

Didn't have the rear shocks on, but it looks like limiting strap are probably in my future because the rig had more room to flex...

It had more room to flex front and rear but some things still need to be buttoned up before I really want it pushed to the limit of course.

I may eventually do what you suggest but not for a while. Thanks for the input and suggestion though.

did you have to use the forklift to wash the roof? also when you get the driveline in that i want to see a wheel on the hood of that rubicon behind your KJ :twisted:

Looks amazing Mike!! Bet you are happy. Why won't that front tire stuff into the fender well? Are the coil springs limiting it?

Makes me wish I kept my KJ. I had a Khaki Green one just like yours. This project looks like a boatload of fun!

Looking great, hope to meet you on the trails someday. Ive got to see it in person.

Thanks a bunch everyone. I love the way it has turned out so far. I couldn't be any happier. Everything still needs to be dialed in. The suspension will cycle more than in the pics, but if you look, some of the bolts aren't even fastened all the way down yet, just needed to see how the jeep was going to react will some twisting and then adjust things accordingly. Looks pretty good from the tests I think though. :wink:

Not sure how much longer. Still needs rear gears, SYE, drivelines, brake lines, and exhaust.
