Well, I will be ordering one of these tomorrow, so last call for tips/hints/advice?:
Grinder:
Amazon.com: DEWALT Bare-Tool DC411B 4-1/2-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Cut-Off Tool: Home Improvement Amazon.com: DEWALT Bare-Tool DC411B 4-1/2-Inch 18-Volt Cordless Cut-Off Tool: Home Improvement
Sawzall:
Amazon.com: DEWALT Bare-Tool DC385B 18-Volt Cordless Reciprocating Saw: Home Improvement Amazon.com: DEWALT Bare-Tool DC385B 18-Volt Cordless Reciprocating Saw: Home Improvement

And then I get to make a trip to the JY for some S10 springs! Ugh, so much stuff to do...


EDIT: Leaning towards the sawzall though...

Keep in mind that a drop pitman arm will change the angle that your drag link is at and might throw it off the track bar angle. Unless you have a drop bracket for the track bar to match.

I thought it came with one...? " It drops your track bar 3/4" to counteract bumpsteer as it occurs in XJ's and ZJ's especially with taller lift heights"

What is bump steer and this "death wobble" i hear of lol. Looks like it comes with a bracket. Just get the drop pitman to match the angles. then you need to buy my steering.
