Sweet where did he get his tires at, and what size is he going to put on? What is wrong with his old wheels? You sound like you're going to be busy, can't wait to see it lifted. Its going to look good!

Turned the front drive shaft and there is about 40 degrees of play. Ujoints seem fine and guessing it might be in the TC ? Jeep went into 4wd no problem during the last 2 days with the snow storms. I did all drive train fluids about 4 months ago. Bottom line... i would like to buy anyone lunch or beer if they are working on their jeep tomorrow and i could come by and have u drive it and hopefully help diagnose the problem. Been out of work for 5 weeks and money is at an all time low. I don't expect to show up and have someone turn wrench's for free....just could appreciate some knowledge and help before she craps out. Please let me know if anyone is available.
Thanks, Chris
