    Haven't been able to work on the jeep a lot the past few days. A friend needed me to machine some wheel spacer. I bent a shock hoop And it wasn't quite how I wanted it. Didn't take the length of the bend in account when I cut the tubing and bent it too far and it's too tall, but that's an...

    My high steer arms came today, the nuts, bolts and studs are on they way along with the upper shock brackets and heim joints. started welding the roof of the role cage together. Had to get creative to have "floor boards" to make welding easier. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

    I bit the bullet and ordered upper shock mount brackets, high steer arms and a set of heim joints. The arms and shock brackets were taking too long to make so I cut my loses and ordered them. While I'm waiting on them to arrive, I did some tube work on the roof. all ready to be welded in...

    I cut off two tube adapters from my lower control arms and put them iin the lathe at work and turned off the weld and milled the flats back in them. I wasn't happy with the shock mounts I bought. So I'm machining them to work better. I started to make upper mounts as well. Another great...

    Yeah, everything fits well enough to move on to repositioning my lower control arms and building shock hoops. Once the notches are integrated into the role cage I'll go back and fine tune everything. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

    My notches look pretty good with tires on. A little grinding is going to have to be done. The driver's side is a little too tight for comfort. The axle is set up for full compression. Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app

    Almost done boxing in the frame where I had to notch it. I had to fill in a spot and it looks terrible, but oh well. Resurfaced another rotor, not too happy with the surface finish but I think it'll do. Driver's side Passenger side Sent from my SM-G950U using WAYALIFE mobile app
