Finally got my front coilovers installed. Also installed new springs in the rear + servicable u-joints up front.

I'm in LA currently. I'll shoot for pics on Friday. Road test on Sunday (Rubicon) before real Road test in mid July. Bringing Welder just in case, and maybe some spare steel...

If those old coils need a home let me know. Dragging belly with 2.5" is not always fun.

Installed a Tuffy Security Deck. And had Pure Jeep install their gusset and axle back bone on my D44.

If anybody is interested, the guys at Pure Jeep were great to work with. I was down in Bakersfield for a couple of days for world. Not only did Steve the owner drop me off at work, he picked me up when they were done. Great customer service.

Good news bad news. The jeep was delivered tonight but the front coils were too short/low load. I'm running this weekend with the limited set up while reorder the right coils on Monday


Another note: what's the difference between RE4.5" springs and "another company's" 6" springs? Answer: 1/2 inch.
