Mine are only 28". I feel short.. and stubby.

Someone's got soft line envy :mattmoon:

Your build is really going well That e-brake setup looks killer!

Ah gotcha. I went the same route for the E-brake -- used Earl's Speed Flex with two (2) AN-3 to 10mm banjo adapters at each end for the Kawasaki brake master cyl and caliper.

Your build is really going well That e-brake setup looks killer!

Thanks much!

Its been drizzling all day and USPS delivered this so I thought I'd post a picture since its been so long ehehe

The battery clamps are the second part on my vehicle thats from the infamous M151 "Mutt" (jeep) -- the first being the transfer case shifter boot

 

[sn0border88]

any reason you got those clamps and not one from a local parts store?

No real reason i did go through two pairs of battery clamps from the local store -- both of which got chewed up and eventeually craked from frequent battery removal.

You need to update this. We need pics and diagrams of your brake line routing. I forgot, did you remove the ABS control unit deal?

 

[IZwack]

you want updates!? fine

I don't have pics of the brake routing and stuff cauz today was a mad rush to get it rolling.

Anyway, in the flex shot above, the shock on the passenger's side still has 5 more inches of extension and the driver's side still has 2 more inches of compression till both shocks are at their "safety" limits (taking into consideration 3/4 to 1 inch for safety -- i.e.: its actually almost 6 inches left of extension on the passenger's side).

i jsut pitched a tent











so is the body lift getting the heave ho soon?
plans for the front bumper?

 

[FROADER]

Sick IZ...sick.

I don't remember, are you keeping the body lift?

 

[section525]

Wack.. are you keeping the body lift?













Looks freakin sick!

 

[IZwack]

Thanks guys !!
HUGGEE relief to have it rolling!

Stop with the body lift questions I'm going to keep the BL for now -- but if I have time before the cold months come, I'll chop em down to either 1.5 or 1 inch.

There are other priorities -- the front locker is coming tomorrow (Aussie Locker) But I got a lot of work to do for my job so I probably wont get around to it till the end of the week or the weekend.

Plans for the front bumper.. well i haven't thought about it yet and I probably won't until I purchase a winch cauz the bumper design is going to be based on the winch.

Any binding that you can tell yet?

Holy post editing!

 

[IZwack]

Any binding that you can tell yet?

No binding yet -- but then again, as I said, the vehicle hasnt been flex to its max yet. Tho the entire suspension was flexed with the vehicle in the driveway and there was no binding then (during construction).

Holy post editing!

hater

 

[sn0border88]

Yes, I as well pitched a tent.

Very nice, now give us some real flex shocks.

 

[zainyD]

Sick!! Now go build a bumper and put a grille in that thing.
