Thanks guys! It's coming along...getting anxious to bolt them slabs on!!
Haven't had much time to do anything this week. Work has been insane! Hopefully I'll be able to put some long hours in this weekend. I wanted to have the skins and sliders mounted this week so I could tackle the front axle shafts, gussets, and Prosteer's this weekend. We'll see how far I get. My plan is to have the coilovers on next weekend.

Finally welded the sliders on tonight. I aligned and tacked them on the ground with a floor jack, then finished on the hoist. Happy with the low angle. I have too many vertically challenged people and work customers getting in my Jeep...so figured the step was a smarter idea.
Coilovers are going on this weekend!!

Thanks for the kind words guys!! Been a long time coming to be able to do this.
Unfortunately, I had a machine go down this morning at work that I had to go in and fix. So I didn't get as much accomplished as I had planned...shit happens. I did finish up the front, rear rock stars are on, upper strengthening brackets are in, and started on the rear track bar bracket. Hopefully tomorrow I can wrap it up. Not rushing it though.

Burning the midnight oil...but she's back on the road. Drives awesome! Still have to get everything dialed in. Caster was sitting right at 4.5* after a few trips around the block. By the time I got home from the shop, I was amazed at how much it had settled. I'll get it twisted up with the hi-lo sometime this week.
