Oh crap! Not the anal probing thing again,lol.:eek: still at it with the tires, will be doing the axle swap when we get home for Christmas. Just ordered the rest of the parts for Kevin today and will be ordering my new wheels tomorrow. We'll need to go on a run soon and get some rock rash together, yup.:thumbup:

I pulled the anal prob out this morning. No lube. Let me know if you need help. I'm sure Conman doesnt want this project in front of his house!!! :cheesy:
 
I was looking through your build thread and saw you removed the rubicon express trac bar to replace it with a currie !my question is I have the same lift and just replaced my front diff cover using eddies write up and now it hits it looks like i can remove the relocate kit and give me some clearance did you remove the tracbar relocate to put your new trac bar on or was there one there to begin with? Any help would be appreciated thanks

Projects are always welcome in front of my house. Got my bigger compressor so I am good to go! I have been pretty busy myself but starting to slow down again.

Doing the work at Kevin's this time. He's trading labor for my D44 for some reason.

The trac bar mounting is all orignal. The only thing I did was remove the Rubicon express trac bar and replace it with a currie HD trac bar. I'd double check the direction that it's currently in. The short end will be going to the top and the long end will be heading down to your axle. I was only able to find one picture of the old trac bar and it's not a good pic. And you are saying it's hitting your diff cover correct?

The only pic's I have.

I think that would be a great idea to have a get together going for next month. Maybe we can take Conmans advice and get a snow run along with it???

Sounded like Lee was suck at your house the last time he was there!!! Bigger compressor, you must be planning on doing some heavy work. I've got to get me a compressor myself... I think a welder may come first!!!

I fully agree we should set up a snow run. Man, the time needed to drop off the rig to Vick is possing to be difficult. Welder, pipe bender along with a pipe cutterr would be wonderful right about now.

The rear D44 is a true DANA. It's worth some money if its free for him to provide time.

Lookin' like we need to have a welding party. I'll bring the welder, you bring the teacher? (We can practice welding JK's doors closed):D

Not like it would be a challenge or anything :D but remember the NorCal group did recently call us out. Just sayin':sly:

In a roundabout way, yeah they did. Was one of those " we'll show you ours and you can show us yours " sorta thing. See? If you had'nt been playing grab ass with the aliens for a whole month you would've seen it:p

Was an idea of the two groups getting together in the near future. They offered to take us on one of their trails ( Fordyce ? ) and we can take them to one of ours.
