about 95% done now.....
Well .... After a late night out Saturday, I got a late start Sunday... still have a few things to tend to...
Shocks
swaybar
stablizer
driveshaft
leaf alignment (I can align mine cause I'm slick like that)
LCA mount reinforcement
Fab some stuff to make all the heims double shear
need to side to side shim the leafs (don't ask)
Also need a new front driveshaft cause my wheelbase 2" longer now ;) (this might mean some more trimming as well)
Probably get new shocks up front too. But enough of that...I wish I had taken more pics but here is what I have now...

Well, I got the axle positioned tonight. Looks like I can reuse my front driveshaft too.
Now I just need to weld together my drag link, shock mounts, do some shackle modification, fill it with gear oil and give it a test run.
Then I gotta align it, clean the garage & drink some serious beer 
Long term I gotta fab up a sway bar, & do some LCA mount reinforcement.... but I think that can wait a few days....
CArl, if you have that DPA can you give it to a BR guy for me? Or maybe get your booty up here with crabby next weekend?
So since I have a YJ front axle & springs & will have a ZJ pitman arm ... does that mean I'll have a XYZJ?
