Boy that's short. What's your suspension travel goal? As in what shocks do you plan to run and how bad is that going to be on driveline angles at droop

Nearly 2 inches longer than a TJ rear drive shaft.  I'm thinking about 4" compression and 6-8" droop.  We'll see.  Limit straps already on the radar.

More Ruffstuff today.  Pinion guard, axle seals, clevis mounts, brake line brackets...


Fully welded the control arm mounts on the axle housing and spray-bombed.

Lower welds look OK.


Upper welds not great.  Hopefully "gorilla" quality.


And installed the axle seals...

It appears you're using that green etching primer? That stuff is awesome.
