Got the 9" in the rear today, cut the perches off and moved them inward, haven't welded anything yet, found out that the spider gears are welded solid or there's a locker hiding inside of it, I have to pull the center section out anyways to swap in another one with matching gears for the front so I will know more when I do

I haven't made much progress lately on the jeep, I did put a new roof on the garage, tore out a bench that was way too big and replaced it with some shelving, and spent the last 2 weeks after work trying to get the garage cleaned up and the jeep cleaned out. It seems that in between working on the jeep it gets filled up with all sorts of random things. I did however pull the 4cyl engine/tranny out for the last time today, now that its out I can work on the front suspensionand get the front diff installed. Unfortunately I probably won't make it back out there till next month with Xmas in a few days, but I have lots of parts to keep me motivated and moving forward,

I hope everyone who is following along has a merry Christmas and a happy new year

ive been working on out boarding the front springs lately, came in to take a break from the cold, i have the drivers side mounts cut off and every thing ground down, i started making my brackets to move everything outwards, i will post some pics later when i call it quits for the day

mounts are only tacked together until everything is in its proper place, everything will be reinforced and beefed up and a pic of the new shelves i made to get ride of the huge useless bench
