Not good, but the pictures are badass. That's gotta mean something...

So I've got a set of flat top knuckles I got from Dan but have been putting it off since I'm not sure what to do about the panhard on the cast wedge axle.

I've seen this done a couple times, just not sure how well it would work on the ford axle...

That looks like it might work. Going to have to do some measuring.

Finally got the ring & pinion out. Also found the short side u-joint is shot.

Pretty sure some foreign material caused that. Probably a piece of previously broken shaft. That gear set is at least 6 years old, I'm fine with that.

Got it back on all 4. Set the ring & pinion yesterday. Got a great pattern, didn't have to move the pinion at all from the previous set up. Ready to go tomorrow for Blessing

Ordered some center mounted limit straps for the front. May be taking over DD duty for a few weeks when the WJ is in the body shop.

Drove the silver jeep around all weekend back home. Loving the doors off.

Looks like that bumper sticks out a bit further than I thought.
