I did get the nitro shocks. And the black steering stabilizer. Any problems with vibrations with just the TC drop?

More work on the bumper! Welded almost everything together. Need to drill holes for the tow hooks and lots of grinding. Then some flat black paint

Damn, that was fast. Even for only being a few hours away from the factory, shipping usually takes a couple of days.

You are telling me. I only got it with standard ground shipping. I thought at the soonest it would be Friday.

It is outrageous, had a shipping cart full of rustys stuff and when i calculated the shipping It came out slightly more expensive than the RE stuff I bought from serious offroad, and didnt include lcas. I could have driven there and picked the stuff up for about 40 dollars worth of gas. But I just went with RE.

A big reason why I liked the RC ones. Cheaper, and come with a frame side mount to hold it once it's disconnected.

Some pictures from today's almost rolling my buddy's 88. Glad I wasn't in it. I was spotting and he started down and she slid. The concrete chunks are counter weights and the strap was some crazy strangers idea. Got it saved by a high lift and a come along with a tow strap. Used the high lift to lift the front enough to slide a chunk of the concrete under the tire several times to gain traction and used the come along to strap to the tow pack and a large chunk of concrete the size of the jeep to bring the back down to get traction with the rear passenger side tire. All together is say it lasted about an hour and a half. The whole time a tow truck watched us.

We still drove down that same side but this time we dug up the grass so it'd have traction to keep her straight.

Sprayed probably 50-100 lbs of mud out of/off of my XJ today. Completely sprayed from top to bottom and the undercarriage.

Muddy Jeep.

I can neither confirm nor deny the use of weapons to secure said deals! lol. no, this one is an acquaintence who i gave some advice/help to a couple times when he needed it, and he remembered me when he no longer had a need for the jeep. HE actually called ME! i was like "umm where's it at? i can be there in 3 minutes!" and i was! grabbed a plate off the 93 and drove the 95 like a race car to the other side of town. lol
Good Deal! I picked my 97 up from a customer of mine who knew I had an old Wrangler I was rebuilding and told me if I made a $200 donation to Family Services she was all mine. I have put about $1100 more in her and I have a reliable DD.

That concrete on the rear of the Cherokee makes me cringe lol. I would have just walked to the closest shopping center and had a few fat chicks hop in the hatch. Forget that concrete
