Alright, in a calm voice, here's where my lift stands.
GOOD:
I have all four springs (3" Skyjacker coils/3.5"RE leafs)
I have a ZJ V8 tie rod to install
I have four 33x12.5" tires on 15x10 wheels
I have TC drop for temporary fix
I've been PB Blasting like it's my job
BAD:
One of my tires isn't holding air; reason unknown
I only have until the middle of January, or I have to drive my Jeep home stock
My money disappeared cause my apt manager and the power company are proving to be even more stubborn than the House of Representatives
NEED:
Track bar, Shocks, Bumpstops, Sway Bar Drop
If anyone can help with parts or advice, I'm more than happy to take both.
EDIT: I think I'm just gonna redrill for the trackbar til I can get a HD one. Seems like a lot of people do it, and I haven't seen any nay-sayers.

Over at Nate's (passt) changing fluids and noticed his fill hole on front diff cover is lower than mine. Is that normal? Fill hole is below axle tube.

A big thanks to Brian for all the help tonight, front and rear diff fluid changed. Much learned, and got to hang with a cool guy in the process.

Thanks, Mike. I'll be sure to post once a date is determined.
Bumpstops and shocks are what's holding me back now. I'm gonna pretend there's nothing wrong with the tire until Jon can give me some feedback. If it can be fixed, there's no reason to be stressed. If not, I'll have to figure something out.
My plan for shocks:
Front coils are 3" so 3" shocks.
My rear springs are RE 3.5s, and I'm told they underrate theirs, so I'll likely have 4-4.5" after settling. Shocks seem to be sold at 3" and at 4-5" but I'm not sure which to go for.
I was planning on putting my front 3" shocks on with the lift, and ordering rears after measuring my actual lift in the back. Would I be alright driving without rear shocks for the time it takes to ship?

Mike I'm gonna be up toward Elkton (New Castle) this weekend - maybe we can meet up at some point. If you do your axles one weekend I'm more than willing to plan a trip up there - I'll just drop my fiance off at her moms and head down.
I need to get you to weld something quick for me anyways if you're willing.
