Nick's CJ build part 1

[USMC 0369]

Got a bunch of mundane stuff done this weekend. We had a party to attend and booze to drink Saturday so Sunday we was movin real slow. But we installed new CV-type yokes on the outputs of the tcase, new brake lines and mounting tabs, wheel spacers, rebuilt two more shocks (don't get me started here) and a few other little tasks. Next weekend comes the BIG deal... stretching the frame to get 104"WB and cutting the tub to stretch fit the frame. FINALLY he broke down and said yes. I'm as happy as a soon to be bride who's boyfriend finally popped the question. Geezzzz... Cut the damn thing already... Till next weekend, ya'all GFYS.

It only hurts on the first cut. Then they get easier and easier.

Nick I think I saw your inspiration for this build. This thing is going to be badass.

[COLOR="#800000"]I amateur hour'd one on there before. I'm sure A-Hole can make one better, I just wanted to try and price one out. Although... I do know a guy with a 258 that's going to a 4.0 EVENTUALLY...[/COLOR]

[COLOR="#800000"]It's more of a necessity now than a convenience. So whether it hurts or not, it's gotta be done.

Nick, are you still looking for wheels and tires? Or is this something for part II of your build? Notice the USMC decal on the door!

Great! Now we have to start over. That is EXACTLY what Nick was looking for. Guess a low rider option is next...
