My late Scots-Irish dad loved to make stuff. Loved the outdoors too. Always learning. Look forward to seeing him again! :beer:holes = cowbell

It's slow. Sure is tough to make fast progress when you drive it every day. I'm at the point of designing the lower coilover mounts. I'm thinking about combining an upper C gusset with the mount on the top. Since YJ's aren't narrowed in the frame, it'd be best to move the lower mount out as far as possible to keep from squeezing the coils between the tires and the frame. I'll probably go with Trail Gear custom shock hoops on top. I just have to quit driving it long enough to get the measurements. I have the upper link done. I seriously think it's stronger than both lowers combined. The bracketry is still an erector set. I have to make each piece able to be bolted together and swiveled into position before being welded. It's slow, but accurate.God forgives, rocks don't
