Been awhile since I have updated this thread. Since I have put more bend in the tierod to like 29.5* of both sides. It now clears everything and has the ability to be adjusted unlike before. I got different yokes for the tcase because I messed up and didnt order it with the right yokes before (http://wayalife.com/showthread.php?38241-Atlas-2-Speed-Problems here is a link to me being stupid). Since I got the yokes changed out I measured for driveshafts and just ordered a set from Carolina Driveline. Hopefully those will be here next week. I also got the cover off the fuel cell with help from my cousin and got the pump out so do I can do something about getting it to pick up lower. Also note to self there are fuel in the lines so do something other then pulling lines off and soaking the back in gas.

Alright so after some looking around I came across that on the genright website it has you choose your pump year and it says 97-01,02-04,05-06. Found it odd that on my invoice it says 05-10 so after research I believe I have figured out that a TJ tank is 12" tall (same high as my fuel cell where the JK tank is half that). I ended up going to the parts store to get a 06 pump. Its supposed to be here at noon so Im thinking it may just plug right up and drop in the tank and work perfectly I guess we will see. From what I hear the 4.0 and 3.8 drawl same fuel pressure or close to it so I should be good there. Worst case if it doesnt work Ill take it back and go back to trying to make mine work.

Nice! Think those steering arms would work with 4"bs wheel? Think I remember you were running 3.5"? Love the Dynatrac sticker. :)

Bolts they sent me were just barely off on the threads but I found something else laying around so I know what to go get tomorrow. Over all visually pleased by the driveshafts and they got them done and sent to me in a week.

Getting close man! Is that the last piece? Going to put an exhaust or let that big ol 3.8 scream?

Unless i just forgot about something that was the last thing to order. Ill probably have to get a few smaller things but thats it on the big stuff. Im guessing Ill have to get some more hydraulic lines for the ram considering probably got more travel and probably further out now. After driveshafts are in and ram is mounted plan to take it to exhaust shop. Im gonna leave the cats out and im just gonna have them leave it straight piped for now. If I dont like it then ill put my muffler I had back in it.

I may get it out to do a lap around the shop later tonight. I guess we will see what actually gets done today.
