stuff is amazing, just take a spot down to bare metal on the cowl, adhesive both sides put some wax paper on a rock or something heavy to hold down the tab till it sets. Body guys use it to glue on the quarter panels on cars

We used it to glue in the floors on my 94 in the rear. I can vouch for it...strong as hell.

Not till after I do my WJ knuckle swap....

Edit...then I won't be using this anyway.

The one thing I do not like about this system, is the length of the passthrough bolt on the PS knuckle...seems to me like it would be prone to breaking from the stress put on that long of a bolt.

But that is only my impression, not my real world experience.

I am doing the WJ swap so I can have a separate drag link and tie rod using 1 ton TRE's, and an OTA track bar.

Bout $315 right now, I might be able to get them lower if I have more buyers. I have 3 total right now. I am looking to buy in next 30 days but could wait a week or so if someone needed some extra time...

So you don't want water running into the cowl, clogging up the water that already runs thru there when it rains.
