Ha ha that's how much I got my 90 amp for! Ya I know that's why I bought my Lincoln

 

nice progress man.

 

Got a bit done...


In this picture you can see where the ballistic lower CA mounts are... i will not be using these because they wont work. I will be making my own


This is almost exactly where the axle will sit in relation to the body



This is most likely how far the rear axle will be pushed back, it may go back farther depending on what i decide....




My work put my on 7-10's (10.5 hour shifts, 7 days a week) instead of half assing **** i will be waiting until my schedule changes back to normal, that way i can do things right. I am saving up right now, all funds will go to the jeep
The rear is tacked together all i need to do in order to finish it up is get some lower CA joints, and tubing depending on what joints i go with. And i have to make some misc. brackets as well. I plan on finishing that here in the next two weeks.

 

Your not done yet? Lol no ya that looks about right, get on it. where are you getting your joints from?

 

I'm thinkin ballistics 2.63 joints and some heims

 

Nice build man. I like the HF plasma you scored. Its really about haveing the right too for the job. I'm lookin forward to more progress updates.

 

Ya the HF plasma has worked great so far! I am beginning to think the most expensive part of this build will be the tools I aquire along the way!

 

Ya that seems to be the best route! just sucks cause of their bad customer service, & waiting on there shipping. Looking around though it looks like the best bang for your buck!

This is gonna be a pig when you're done!!!

 

You can get comparable joints to the ballistic joints as well as johnny joint type spherical rod ends that are better at

Parts Mike out of Newcastle. CA Here is a pic of their rod ends and dom tubing links

 

Those look pretty nice,ill have to check em out when I get off work.

How's their shipping?

 

Ya I'm really not looking forward to ordering from them again, they need to fix their customer service and shipping bad. And thanks! I decided yesterday that I will also be comp cutting the rear
Also found a Dana 70 with discs and dual piston calipers at the local jy for 150$. I may end up getting that and using it instead of my sterling I don't know yet. And...... I found a ford HP Dana 60 for 300$ that I may get as well... lots of thinking to do.

 

The rod ends have a tough nylon insert in them. They are also threaded, no snap rings like Johnny Joints. Much easier to work with later

 

Looks awsome man, definatly going to be a tank when your done!

 

I thought he had a Sunday night update lol thank god (I want me some sausage, egg, & chee biscuits!)
