    I would unweld the rearend, that screams ghetto off-road rig to potential buyer.

    Stumble in to the liquor store
    With a dollar-fifty for a bottle of wine,
    I know just what I'm lookin for
    Thunderbird will do just fine.

    i may have some control arms but if brett can get them to you then that would work, if the yoke is the same as cj 30's then i have a dozen and you can have one

    thanks guys. for the rear end I will probably swap out the carrier and spiders for open ones.
    Brett let me know about the control arms. How much for a set?

    well the jeep got mostly put back together the other day. I spent the extra time to clean everything really well and hit it with some paint. still need to hook brakes back up and driveshafts and repair oil pan. still need to swap out the welded rear too(if I end up doing that) and get new yoke and front driveshaft. I think I am going to warrenty out the two front tires too... they got pretty eaten up when the control arms gave out

    My jeep may be up for sale at the end of the year or first of next year. Will make you a good deal on it.

    did you drill it out and put ubolts on instead of straps? if so I bet it would last pretty long as long as the nipples are still there on the side

    shouldn't be too bad, no easy out? I used to use them and the bolts would come out pretty easy
