Finally got it installed.... Cold here- took forever for paint to dry (still not fully dry). Still have to install sway bar but ran out of time.

Thanks man! Was a little worried about the truss warping the axle/guests warping the Cs but it was tack welded to a jig and everything went together smoothly. We will see about camber when I get an alignment but knuckles slid right on so I think I'm okay.

When u put those tail lights in you American XJ it leaves a big gap at the bottom. So they make these adapters for that. But these adapters are also hard as heck to find.

Did a bit more painting today. Decided I was tired of the primered driver side fender and the faded passenger side, so I bought some of this \/ at Ace today.
Just a simple enamel spray paint that seemed to match the factory color decently enough for me. Picked up some clear with it and went to town! Got side sections of the hood and the fenders masked off how I think it would look nice. Eventually gonna do the nose piece there with the Jeep logo on it in black to match the hood and front end. And you can see the day's fuel sitting there, too....
Did both sides the same way and after it was all said and done, set and cleared, pulled the tape and paper off to reveal a (to me) rather decent looking paint job! Didn't have enough to do the center section on the hood, but oh well....
