the goodyear 37 in the 16.5" flavor work decent. but they do make regular MTRs and even new tread pattern for them now. you can find them in surplus already.

Ed's flop was on the same trail that it took me 3 times to get up last year. Its loose and has random holes and 2' rocks in it everywhere.
Bummer that weld broke Pat. I beat the piss out of that thing and never have an issue. Looks like the joint didn't work properly, got over extended and shoved the entire mount inward. Good luck with it. -
bolts for the flange and adapter are a normal 1/2" fine thread, no need for dealer, just locktight em.

Looks like Tony's (DaMutt) old TJ

Especially if heading up to RC. I remember leaving Dover one eveniong and it was like 55. Up in the Mts though it was 30 and a blizzard. 4wd was a need be then. Never expected it to be snowing nor was it forcasted. Sometimes things like that just happen. -
the instant center wouldn't much matter unless you changed the rear also. Changing it without the rear could make it handle a little awkward, but still predictable.

Looks good, should have said something, I would have come up after work on Sunday. I have a waggy arm at your house. It may be a reamed CJ but I think it is a waggy. Those ballistic brackets were the ones that I thought I still had before. Oh well. Sorry my time and life situation delayed it so much. Looks good though.

Not moving it will go into every gear without the clutch?
How is it parked on an incline in gear no e-brake?
Hows the fluid look?
Just because it is a dual friction does not mean it is going to be a stiffer clutch. They do come in different pound increments. May want to look into what you purchased and what comes stock on the JKs. -
In DE you only have to get out of the vehicle for 2 minutes while the plug into the OBDII. They never look for anything beyond that.
On another note, since I have had next to no time recently with everything going on. The axles are up at Aaron's for gear install. Then we will weld on the front LCAs and start the install shortly after. -
I am a huge fan of Coast Driveline and still have a dealership with them. I can get their shafts with the proper 8.8 mounting pretty cheap. Geoff let me know when youre ready and I will get you some prices. The owner of Coast is one of the coolest people I have ever talked to. I ran their shafts for a while. I had a High angle for a bit and got rid of it with my 8.8 a while ago. Before that I had a Tom Woods and never had an issue. I can get an SYE kit from Coast also. I would honestly say that Coast makes the nicest stuff that I have seen, as far as a DS goes. They lifetime warranty all of their work. Custom shafts are normally delivered in less than 2 weeks. I believe that John "Slimer" has gotten one from me, along with a number of other people including Brian "Quantum". I wouldn't get any other company's shaft.

No promises, but I am going to try and come out to support this. Have always enjoyed it before.

You just answered my why, thanks...

Jeep vs Owners tug of war... Nice...
I use to hate baccking up in the sand so much... Even worst now. -
Can I just ask Why....
Not like it is a trail rig with a cage inside of it or anything... -
Wheeling... How about I park on the road and walk into the parking lot of RC. HAHA...

I am going to start being around more, dont worry I have my plans...

Come watch us represent and destroy the competition, if anything it will be an awesome show for everyone to watch. If not, wish us luck!

Its the size of the pistons themselves. They have a different bore. Get the normal ones. Not worth it to get the bigger ones. Not when they are $60 more.

the d30 and the d44 use the same ujoint on the axle shaft. On a D30 the ujoint and ball joint are what normally break. Why spend the money to upgrade to a 44 when you do not even know if you will need it. I would alloy and gear the D30 and then call it a day.
