Okay...her hands look way too clean to be any more than a poser shot...lol. Did she really help beyond shagging the beers?

"Shagging the beers"... lol. The jeep was so clean at that point we didn't really get dirty at all (just brake fluid). Actually, it's still ridiculously clean. Only thing in SW Florida is mud, and I don't do mud. Just waiting to move later this summer.

I picked up a full set of Metalcloak adjustable arms from Northridge to use for pinion adjustment with new Adams driveshafts. Install was not difficult and there is a noticeable improvement in the smoothness of the ride. Prior to this I had Teraflex adjustable front lower arms and everything else was stock.
I saw Dave's post saying that if they showed it on the website they had it in stock and they did. My order shipped immediately, I was prepared to order and have to wait several weeks.

Also was they have front upper axle side bushings, but the right side doesn't look like it could be use with the artec truss I all ready have. Anyone using them?

I saw then to. But I could not find that much information on them. They look like good shafts and all but the rear looks like it reuses the stock pinion flange. Also was they have front upper axle side bushings, but the right side doesn't look like it could be use with the artec truss I all ready have. Anyone using them?
Also, most people do not want to do the work to properly reset the pinion preload. Pulling axle shafts and carrier is a bit of a pain just to swap a driveshaft.

^^^Just to clarify, if you measure preload before removing the pinion nut, you can leave the carrier and shafts in, but all brake parts need to go. If you don't measure before, everything comes out and you start from scratch.
