    Count me on the no more business with Northridge train

    Seems pretty clear to me. Read the policy before you go off on a company. :naw:

    Build Shops in San Francisco Bay Area

    Take it to Mike Shaffer at Shaffer's Offroad in Alameda. Great shop and Mike is a great dude. Or, bring it up to Sacto area - tons of great shops up here. I would recommend either Offroad Addiction (Newcastle) or WFO Concepts (Auburn). Metalcloak does installs too (Cloakworks) if you go that...

    Bed mounted spare or none at all?

    Over three years now and I can tell you from experience it works great. Recommend removing the rear seat. There is plenty of room for all your food and beverage, tools, parts, etc (most of which I pack low behind the front seats). Lighter stuff like clothes, chairs, tents can easily be packed up...

    Full cages - let's see them

    Check out Synergy/Poly Performance. They offer the A, B, and C pillar as weld in. Here are a few photos to give you an idea. The A and B have frame tie ins (A frame tie shown in the pic below). The B pillar is basically a couple down tubes that weld to a floor plate like A and also includes a...

    E-brake help!

    You can try disconnecting the cables from inside under the console to free up some slack so you can connect the wheel end first. Then reconnect the cables inside the jeep by pulling the cable connector back far enough so you can re-connect the cables. I recently installed new custom axles and...

    more pics earlier on in the project.. The tire pressure figure is bogus - not sure why it has a reading as TPMS is disabled.

    Burner's Build

    I'm happy to report that everything worked out as planned! I must admit, I was a little concerned about the speed sensors and gear ratio, but it all checked out and I drove my jeep home yesterday. To address the change in tone ring tooth count (52 changing to 60), i had to calculate the...

    Sorry, did not mean to imply I'm doing the welding. Dylan (owner of Offroad Addiction, Auburn CA) does all the work. You would have to ask him. My welding skills stop with J-B. :yup: Actually, based on one of the photos it looks like they are using a large Millermatic 210. He may have more...

    Burner's Build

    Dylan and team at Offroad Addiction are off to a great start this week with tacking up the mounts, cycling the suspension, etc - all in prep for final assembly next week. The synergy draglink will be replaced by Fusion4x4's draglink and the AGR ram will likely be replaced due to the stroke being...

    The axles are ready for install - just timing the delivery for when I drop off my jeep next week. Here are some photos of the Fusion 4x4 Ultimate 10's. The 3.5 Spidertrax housing tubes look like toothpicks against the massive Reid Super Kingpin knuckles. Many thanks to Dan at Fusion for making...

    As far as the axles go, I will post of pics once they are received, but this should give you an idea of the route I'm taking. This beauty arrived yesterday and I must admit, I did sleep with it last night instead of my wife. :yup: For my 3rd members, I chose Gearworks and went with two HP 10"...

    Also, working on building my new wheels in preparation for the arrival of my new axles. These are Trail Ready HD 17 beadlocks, 8x170, with the Rock Ring. I chose the standard finish thinking it would look good against my black jeep (different from the black ATX slabs I had prior), but I got a...

    Quick update on my build...in preparation for my new custom axle build by Fusion4x4, I recently installed the mopar big brake kit booster, master cylinder and reservoir to better power my new Ford (front) and Wilwood (rear) brakes. Here are a couple photos of the Mopar brake booster, master...
