Gettin ready for Tellico, even at work

[Krawler00]

Ben, I am sure we can work on it when you get there. One of us should have the right tool for the job! I JUST came in from again workin on the Jeep. Finally got the 2 track bar bolts cut back. Found that the driver side bolt was actually cutting into the gas tank at full compression, and the other was scraping the rear spring on the pass side! Also had to cut more off the exhaust and head over to advance for a 90 elbow and clamp it on. Tommorrow need to go to the fab shop and have a hangar put on. Also BY CHANCE was in the yard flexing after the bolt cutting and the 4wd would not stay in 4 lo! MAN! So I had to cut about 1/2" out of the shifter bracket so that the lever would stay back. I adjusted the trunion nut on the new skyjacker trans plate but it was not enough. It has been a ROUGH week working on this Jeep getting ready for this trip! Atleast the gas leak has seem to be fixed! ;D

Ummmm.. sooo.. I gotta get my driveshaft shortened tomorrow... point me to the shop that does good work the fastest 

Wasn't anticipating this. Sucks. Just been trying to cram all this stuff in a couple of weeks. I'll be there sometime this weekend. Hopefully Friday after lunch.

Will it not fit at all with the new flange?

cool doug I guess hold off on the doors and bring the plate for $70. I've got to fix a rear swaybar link when I leave work

Just leave it disconnected, more flex. Will, not sure about your situation. Better start hittin the yellow pages and google! That really sucks!!!

I've heard it's worse to disconnect the rear when the front is diconnected

Will it not fit at all with the new flange?

Nope, it's a half inch too long at full compression and if I cut that off the end of the splines I won't have any compression when it's under the Jeep. I've leaving for Forest Park in a few minutes.  Sucks big ones, but I'm getting it done.
