[sickandtwisted]

1 1/2 but who's counting...

 

[Will_Beck]

Tone, if you ever decide to part with those control arms, let me know.

What are your plans for the xj? Going to continue in the direction Jim was heading, or something else?

 

[tone]

Drop brackets came off today, and I started cutting to make room for the RE long arms. Have to mod the RE cross brace to work with the T&J stiffeners. More pics to come

 

[crazyjim]

Nice! Get her done!

When you're ready to make those T&J stiffeners connect to the control arm mounts let me know.

Update:

Jeep is almost finished, just have to tie in cage and do some little things. It is on the other hand drivable and simi legal.

Crossbars scare me, you going to wear a helmet?

 

[tone]

Seats need to be angled up a little more and bars padded, but yes at speeds a helmet will be on.

 

[POSJ]
