Got a few things done this weekend. Paul got the knuckles, spring pads and shock mounts welded up. Here is a couple pictures of the front axle and knuckles with Shakerbuilt's arms and spaces install.

It is almost ready to go. Still waiting on the diff to show up and the rear will be done. [ftp]http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6dd24b3127cce97c7d30a07dc00000016109AYs2TNq2bm[/ftp] [ftp]http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6dd24b3127cce97c7d3f3861500000016109AYs2TNq2bm[/ftp] I'll be off to Texas with the kids, so hopefully Paul will have it wrapped up by the time I get back. Love you dear. Jenn

Paul i'll give ya some help on that bathroom if you'll build me that track bar. I got a tile saw and pretty much everything else you need to do the job.
Oh yeah did that little bender come in yet. Was looking and the carrier will need about 14 foot of tube.

Matt, Stock springs with a main leaf from an XJ pack add per pack. Dave, Still has the leak. Going to put the parking brake levers on tonight and see if that stops the leak. Tony, What kind of track bar are you trying to make? P.M. me. Haven't ordered the bender yet, have to wait a little. Jenn, Yes dear. PaulC

Looks good Paul.. if you need to bend tube, you can swing by anytime and push on my Model 3 bender.. I've only got 1.75" dies for it (5.5" and 6.5")..

Eddy,
Thanks for the offer. I'll probably have to take you up on it.
Tony,
I still need to make the traction bar. That is in the plans for sure.
Scott,
Thanks.
