    You've got the decal on the windshield so you're halfway there.

    Seriously, that's a cool project. I really want a Jeep someday.

    thanks Sean! the decal i know but if you look close you can see where i kicked the driverside top of the windshield and spiderwebed the shit out of it. i was trying to make the top fit and might have had too many beers to be kicking near windshields. ian will get some business out of it once it hits the road.

    big daddy where are they at? i need a 1310 cv yoke at the top, a long travel heavy duty spline, and a 1350 or 1410 u joint at the bottom end on the rear. the whole shaft will only end up being about 2 ft long. itll really just be splines with yokes welded o n each end. the front will be just stock shaft shortened with a 1350 yoke on the axle end.

    I love my Jeep. I'll always own one. I can do my fair share of vehicle maintenance and repair, but I'm by no means what you'd call a "car guy". I won't be rebuilding any Jeeps in my lifetime but I will making some additions once I'm moved back home (winches and lights and cages and such. Going to get some good use out of it where I plan on living.

    Nice! I sure could use some stock height springs for my YJ. Too bad they're more expensive than some lift kits.
