dunno. I have to clean it up and weld the stuff on, redo the brake lines and pads/rotors, buy a diff cover, and re-gear the front. I'll either re-use my shock mounts off the 8.25 for now or find some shorter rear shocks. I'd also like to add a truss before putting it under the heep.
So realistically probably a month or 2.

I do, just not convinced I want to use it. The ARTEC truss is calling my name.

the kit came with shock mounts that get attached at the centerline of the axle tubes. So i either need to temporarily use my stock shock mounts, get new shorter shocks, or install hoops. Hoops are in the way future.
I hate my rear shocks anyways so i'll probably just get some shorter Bilsteins 5100s for now - ones for a stock XJ would probably work with the raised lower mounts and BPEs up top now that i think about it...i'll need to measure.
These might work
