your typical 1 ton XJ build thread

[CAJJ93XJ]

I clocked up my tcase. stupid easy with this jig



the tcase holes are 7/16 but I used a 29/64 drill bit just to make sure I'd have enough room. I clocked it up about 11* and maybe could have gone to 12*



the case doesn't hang below my frame rail. should make the flat belly pretty straight forward. gonna have to massage the exhaust out of the way though



if anyone wants to rent the jig from me let me know

I need to check other regional forums more often. Love this build and love the axles. Should be a rock solid rig with that setup!

Looks great. Did you have to hack into the floorboards to get it to fit?

thanks man! if I break these axles I think I'm going to quick wheeling

no not at all. if I get enough vibration going through my drivetrain it might rub. I think I'll bang a little dent into the floor just in case but it fits pretty well.

Any of the old d30 stuff for sale?

Probably all stock huh? Never mind.

I'm buying the stock axles from it as soon as JeepinSeal has the time to make it up there to pick them up for me.

 

[CAJJ93XJ]

let me know when he can. sooner the better!




got the other side done. much happier with how it came out



fitment is mostly good on this kit. I'd recommend them

here's how much got drilled out. I am slightly worried that this has weekend things.. we'll see



works much better with an SYE

 

[Skipper51]

Nice build. Good to have a place to leave it on blocks while you work on it.

 

[GordoSmasho]

Did you use a jig to mark those holes out? Going to be doing this soon but not sure I want to spent the money for a jig from iro
