Default ProRock 60's with 4" Tereflex LCG Lift

Well, I now have most of my parts at the house and will begin the tear down of the JK this weekend.

I am taking out the D44 axles this weekend and hope to start grinding off the brackets from the frame in prep for next weekends install of the new axles/lift!!

Here are the parts I have so far...

Tereflex 4" LCG Long arm lift. I am SHOCKED how huge the control arms are. The box with all 4 lower arms weighed 80lbs alone!!!











37x12.5xr17 MTRs w/Kevlar






And the guys at Dynatrac were kind enough to shoot me a few pictures of the building process of my axles. They are the ProRock 60's with 5.38 gears and ARB air lockers...They are not completed in these pictures but are close!! I was told I will get them delivered to Denver this coming thursday or friday (depending on completion etc...)

















Looks like they tried several times to get the gear mesh just right






Man I can't wait!!

Thank you, I am very excited about the whole thing. I have wanted to do the ProRocks on my last two TJ's but couldn't come up with the money...

The only way I was able to afford those sweet axles was with the sell of my TJ. I just really wish that I had them here at my house already

Damn dude, this is one sick build. I knew a while back when you said you were getting 60s that this would be something special, but damn! You must be psyched. Well done.

Now that is the right way to do a build.

Select your parts,
Save your pennies
Buy all the parts
BUILD IT!
