TK's Yellow Krait LJK Buildup by tkfx

3 minute(s) of a 91 minute read

Did some more driving today to and from school. No more wander and I have a lot less body roll then before with no swaybars :lmao:. The rear is a bit stiff however. I will have to definatly swap out some springs back there. Snapped a picture of the rear and a picture of the clearance of the rear axle to the gas tank at ride height.

Thanks!


Did some measuring today. My wheelbase is at 108-109" at ride height and my rear axle is about 1/8" off center.

My next step for this build:

PSC stretch corner
Genright tranny crossmember kit
Custom belly skid
Custom engine/tranny skid
Tom Wood SYE/Driveshaft kit
Anti-Rock Front
37" (Maybe 40"?) Tires
Drop Down Tailgate Mod

Still more work to do!

I hate California smog laws...... I had to take out my stock air box because it had no room with the front coilover towers. I went to go get my smog done today and the tech was saying that the intake was not carb legal. The only thing I changed was the filter, nothing else. You have to be kidding me. I bought a k&n cone filter and stuck it to the end of the stock tubing that the stock airbox was on, nothing was modified.

Next problem is that my jeep is currently only front wheel drive and the smog shops need my jeep in rear wheel drive.

Tomorrow after class im going to head to my local pick a part, get a front driveshaft off a 91-96 XJ then take it to a driveshaft shop to have it sleeved/shortened so it will fit in the rear. I also ordered a SYE from 4WP so that should be here next week.

Other big news, 37's come tomrrow!

Pretty excited! 37s finally came!

Also went to my local pick a part and got a front XJ CV driveshaft. Ima take it to a driveshaft shop to be made the right length and to be sleeved for the rear. After that I need my SYE to be installed and boom, ill be good to go. Ill 1-2" in DS length to accomidate the custom raised tranny mount ill do later on.
