OK its douched.
And I made a chadnutz amount of progress on jeep today. I'd forgotten the fun of building backwardzly-crooked stuff in order to make a crooked jeep drive straight, and now building stuff straight off the crooked stuff which will make it drive crooked untill I build the rear suspension which will make it drive good and straight like a good vehicle that hadn't fell off a cliff should.
Suspension is done. Both center pins were broken but that's kind of normal. But I don't remember the ubolts ever getting loose and they were all bent. So now I get to buy new bigger ones. Front's sitting about 1" higher than the back now, or 2.25" higher than it was, we'll see how it is in a month or so and maybe remove a leaf. The front spring eyes are now about 5" closer to the frame than before. And the shackles are only 1/2" lower than the spring hangers were.
by new suspension, i thought you were gonna do something cool.
Cool stuff's for the ass end. The front was in more need of replacing.
Here's the front suspension pictures. Much more clearance than before. It now sits about 1" higher than it used to, plus whatever the tires added.

Notice the custom fender enlargening, and the spot where the old spring hanger was, no I haven't ground it smooth yet, but I've thought about it.
