solder and double heat shrink

Had to tighten front pinion nut. Should probably replace that, I think I reused it. Hopefully it stays where I just put it.

front axle placement (RTI ramp is at M4, pull coils and air bump pressure for clearance check)
front and rear limit straps shock eye to shock eye to maximize effectiveness
rear air bumps
rear welded link end repairs and JJ's byebye to 1.25 heims
rear sway bar similar to matts setup
full chassis weld check
fix dash hacks 

i would personally do all of these things before spending coin on 2.5's

let me know what i can help with.  We have a pile of 2x2 links with 1.25 bungs from 572 / 928  should be 4 or 6 you could cut down and add one bung, or welcome to lathe for 7075 work

I just applied to the Fox racing program. I would rather get to sell two new Profenders to help pay for the Foxes than have to chop up one more to fit the existing mounts. The springs on there are crooked piles of shit, too, and I want them gone. Would rather not buy springs for 2" shocks.

hood goes on a list that includes dash work. and rewiring is more important than either of those items, but is WAY more expensive and time consuming. Every time it works it doesn't become a priority

wheels/beadlocks are on my list too. otherwise you pretty much duplicated what I wrote down last night.

[M4wdFab]

i dont see bead locks really as anything other than allowing you to drive on a flat longer if you choose to do so. 

Stopping the flats should be a priority, running higher air, or get the car tuned better, or regain control of the car better. 


Changing wheels to loose the front spacers, would be better reason. 




i have had zero luck selling my new in box profenders for 100$ less than what i paid Ryan   i have 6 now

[mr.mindless]

changing wheels to lose the spacers, and also because the lips on the H2s are so weak. It's either that or get some spool gun practice with a shaped brass backer to rebuild the bead lips and then put some rock rings on there. I was hoping Kim would get a night of that in her class and then school us, but she ended up doing more TIG instead of spool gun work.

Any spare air bumps or mounting cans around for my rear?

Just messaged Dean about bodies and seals. Figure I won't have fox approved much less ordered/in hand in time for next race. Would rather fix the broken than run the new.

Need some oil, seals, and some shims as long as I'm in there.

i have shims for 2.0 from Ryan still.

i have (2) 2.5" bump cans
have various springs if you need to replace that wonky one and or change rate/  Jeff probably has some springs left i gave him

i have a buyer looking for CO's let me know your prices for used and new if you decided to sell. 

[JEEPWERX]

What did you order from Fox?
 I have shocks sitting on the shelf

[mr.mindless]

Only ordered race program enrollment so far.

Planning on (4) 2.5x14, hopefully a bit set up for my weights.

Smike, and record of what springs are on there? I'm have doubts I'll be able to read them all. Thinking I should go up a bit on the rear lowers along with lots more compression. Bottoms way too easy.

rears i think would be both 16" coils 150/150

[mr.mindless]

Can you take a look at your coil stock?

[M4wdFab]

here is the list of stock

I guess not much will help you in 2.5" ID coils

[mr.mindless]

Damn, those are some high rates. I was hoping for some 180-200.

what are status and location of dual rate stops- adjusting those may fix your bottom issue without changing rate over entire travel
