I can't wait! I've heard great things about em! :thumbup:
 
Just got the axle back thanks to a quick turnaround by Barry at the Rear End Shop here in Livermore. :thumbup:

Figured while everything was apart I would wire wheel some of the surface rust on the knuckles and give them a fresh coat of paint.

Always a pleasure to come help out my Wayalife family. I'm sure bill be dropping by in the next couple days to check on the progress of the house and see if there's anything left to destroy.

Also I'm a little disappointed to see you covered up the kitchen skylight. I really thought you had put your foot down on that addition :cheesy:

Read this and thought someone stepped through the ceiling sheetrock. Sorry for the confusion. Now, back to the build.

Love those axles.

Oh yeah, how could I forget!? I will say, I did get pretty good a drywall repair through this whole process!
 
Axle is in!

Made a slight adjustment to the track bar to center the axle. Other than that, it was a direct swap! Using an angle finder on my phone, it looks like the pinion is at about 2.8°, leaving 7.2° on the caster. I plan on driving it tomorrow with the links and see how the driveline feels. I figure I may end up at 4°/6°, but probably worth driving it before tweaking anything.

New EVO sway bar links should be here tomorrow and that will wrap it up.

Huge thanks to Ken for coming over this afternoon and helping me button everything up! :thumbup:

Finally got to put some miles on it today and, WOW, what a difference a couple of degrees of caster makes!

Even without my Fox SS (out for warranty), the Jeep is rock solid at 80mph. No wandering, much tighter steering. Just an all around pleasure to drive!

Got a quick alignment yesterday and went with 6.1/6.5° of caster.
