    i only use flux core for trail repairs.

    I have a bottle of C25 that i use for all my welding. as it takes a long ass time to use the bottle i have up with the amount of welding i do, when it runs out, i'm gonna just get a bottle of straight argon so i can do alu in addition to steel.

    oh, i've forwarded the link to those shock shifters to my bud who's tj this was. dear god i hope i dont have to pull his freaking axle again, but those look like the perfect dealie-os

    BTW, I had a shock mount problem also and remedied this by going to the Nth Degree Mobility Shock Shifters. These moved the mounts further outboard toward the wheels.
    I have a set of those that I will be installing in the next couple of weeks.

    well rotated all the brackets 3 degrees at the suggestion of Jim79CJ7, who fixes these stupid things on a (near)daily basis. ONly thing that didnt work out, was the shock mounts, they werent long enough to provide the correct amount of shock stroke, or clearance on the axle/exhaust even with the RE spacers. Will have to make new ones from scratch. However, the jeep is functional, and no driveline vibe.
Working...
