1. A ride to N.O to get my hubs & carls knuckles ... or if someone wants to bring them to me I'll buy you a tank of gas and dinner or whatever....

2. jack stands and a floor jack

3. Someone come take a look at my inner knuckle and tell me what you think. I 'd like someone else to back me up on my decision if I decide to not swap housings

4. Gonna need new calipers/pads & lines up front as well....

Calipers, cheap at Autozone .....like 25 bucks after core....Eric (bus guy) or Rob can get you a discount from whatever autoparts store they work at...

Brake lines....were you running extended?? If so, YJ lines are longer than TJ lines and fit the 30. Not sure how they compare with XJ lines, but I have 4.25" of lift and I am running YJ lines with no problems.

I have a my old set of TJ lines in my spare parts bag. It would be long enough for on the road, but not offroad....

Knuckles, you have coming. People bust knuckles all the time without damaging the tubes. Hopefully, you are in the same boat. You were also going 35

Spiders, if mine fit, $15. If not, I'm sure midget would ask for about the same. I doubt its the ring and pinion if you only got the axle 4 inches or so off the ground. But, I could be wrong. I'll hope for the best.

I'll bring my jackstands tomorrow at lunch, but they are short....you may need longer ones. I also have a weenie floor jack you could borrow, but a nice big one would be betta.

Getting calipers & pads from Josh & Rob at pep boys, my ball joints are under warranty so that fixes that.... probably gonna need to turn the rotors too.

My lines were 6" extended (about 24" total including the fittings) and I had the hard line moved down 3" ... so that gives you an idea of how much flex I have ... er had..... I'm searching the net for longer ones....

Josh has my floor jack & my stands .... though they aren't too long either... so Lance, feel free to bring yours.

Hopefully it's my spiders, which I'll be happy you pay you for yours and let you teach me how to change em.... and beer will be provided....


SO I'll also need the ball joint press from autozone.... and some brake fluid....

YOu will be amazed at how little damage may ruin your axle..

My vote is pinion Tail bearing... But I guess the picture will tell all..
If its what I think It probobly damaaged your R&P..
OH and Lance.. I think he got more like 10-14 " of air.. I have seen the vid.. Its awesome..
Makes my hill climb look like a walk in the park..

Still dying to see eddies video....
