Been working on the jeep for the past several weeks.  Should be able to run Elvis this weekend as a shakedown with Charlie.  I owe a huge thanks to Charlie and Dave (AZXJ) for all their help.

Axle swap, re-gear and cage.  The re-gear was the result of a busted r&p in the front differential which twisted the ds.
Check out some of the pics........  There are different links for the different phases of the build;

Looks Great John.

I don't know about you, but in my opinion working on the Jeep is almost as fun as wheeling it.

It certainly is a stress relief for me.  The stress is hoping to have it done in time to do a run.
Thanks for the comments.

As long as the shocks get here in time, I should be good to go.  I'm planning on it.  Cage isn't completed, but the basic frame is.
