My job ends in two weeks so I should be available for some wrenching. I don't have a spot to do it, but I have some knowhow and a bunch of sockets and tools. Count me in. I still have a rear end to take care of as well.

Im also down if its on a weekend and i dont have any wedding crap to do. I want to put 2 ISOs in the rear to leave the KJ out. If you need a place to wrench mine may be available.

I don't know if you need it.. I know for the KJ's you don't, some people don't even recommend it.

na no need for ball joint remover

If you are replacing the factory arms with JBAs the balljoints are already in place. Just remove the arm and bolt new one in place. Does the KK's pockets have to be clearanced like they do on the KJs?

HAH, driiiiiiillll niiiiiiiice aaaaaand sloooooowwwww. My bit is still good, and I wasn't going to let anyone else break it, haha.

So, When I lifted my Jeep, my friends jack broke, and when we lifted yours, another broke, apparently these Jeeps like to break jacks.

Dean did you ever try the barcode trick?

infernicus · **Posted:** Thu Aug 05, 2010 6:30 pm

I tested the copy of the barcode and it worked, but never went to buy it.

infernicus · **Posted:** Fri Aug 06, 2010 12:01 am
