The Roosternator

got my lower C/A's on

only one bolt stuck in the stockers, luckily one of the guys was still at work and i was able to borrow his air hammer. with a couple hammers and prybars i got'em in there,the ride is about 9 times better.

it rides pretty straight down the road, so im wondering if i should wait till after wheeling in a week and a half to get an alignment.
 
got that POS muffler on...

it sounds like baby Satan farting into a well...
 
rew has a rice burner xj...sounds like a fart can.






but more importantly than the sound or performance.........do you think it will deflect rocks and such?:laugh2:
 
It shall deflect rocks and such.:D
 
Couple updates:

got rid of the sharty glass pack for the thrush welded muffler that john suggested a couple pages back

got some bitching horse power out of these stickers

This is the same design as Detours- Just bolt through the "A"
Pillar and stick a nut on the other end behind the plastic molding on the inside.

Great Innovation!! ! Wish I could of though of this before I forked out $100.00 to get the mounts-

then we realized we f'ed up one of the tie rods, we were pretty tired from braking free pooploads of stuck bolts,and the shop was closing in a little over an hour so i made the choice to just leave it there for the weekend. all that is left is the one tie rod and bleeding the brakes.

so there it sat.

little specs for those who dont know.
they are d30 and 8.25 out of the chzman rig 4.10's and powertrax lockers and the 8.25 has disc brakes.

want to give a huge thanks to the cheeze for hooking me up with the deal. and a huge thanks to brad(goslowgetstuck) for picking these up for me and then storing the for like 4 months then bringing to the badlands. these are the reasons i will continue to support the MWC!
 
by the way the light mounts got scraped. sold those hela's for bout 110% mark profit :D
 
Hey, at least i swapped my axle before you did! :D

Well kinda like yours, something is going on in the front end. the locker is not ratcheting around corners. so tonight im gonna pull the cover and see whats going on in there.
 
So update.
posted in the important thread that the spring kit was what was causing the front to not unlock.ordered a new kit only to find out im a retard. and ordered the wrong one :D

edit: let me just say, this is funny because i order parts for a living....

so being so close to wheeling the front is returning to the unlocked position till further notice.
