Nick's CJ build part 1

[RAT]

You know Nick and Barb are celebrating her birthday right now and thus the silence of the Lamb... No leafs. Four link tri in the rear and three link front. D44 front and Super 8.8 rear is what I'm being told. Not sure the 8.8 will hold up to the 400 HP Hemi though...

I am sure the two of you will come up with a very cool built.
This building stuff is so much fun to do

First, for Chuck...

NO HEMI! I can't afford new driveshafts & axles every other weekend. (& you know I would need them).

The roll cage in the rear is still a work in progress. I have some ideas how I want to set up the rear of the Jeep & the roll cage needs to accomodate that. Kurt is going to beat his head on the wall for a while figuring that part out.

Aluminum tub was something I thought about LONG ago, but couldn't pass up this one for the price. Plus, cutting & welding on this tub will be MUCH easier than on aluminum. Although in the future...

Yes, the old frame will be on Craigslist very soon. But we have lots of measurements to take from it first.

[COLOR="#800000"]It's ok! No problem-o amigo! Queso! That's all the spanish I know...

Just can't wait to start cutting! (we can weld it back together. Welds are stronger than the original steel...so we should cut & weld as often as possible right?)[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#800000"]What is the overall length & width of your frame rails? I think they are drastically different from mine. But if they're the same, hell yea![/COLOR]
