    please, that sh!t is off the burner, in some tupperware, and at the bottom of the freezer under some old meatloaf, a free turkey, and a dead hooker's liver. In 2 years you'll dig it up while trying to find the last blue otter pop, and will throw it away as it is unidentifiable due to freezer burn.

    possibly true... but the jeep is nowhere near the right rig for those parts... what is the point in having a unbreakable front axle if you dont put any real power through it... and let me tell you a 4.0 doesnt have the power the bronco does....

    i might build the sliders first because i know exactly what i want in them and i dont see that taking too long... i dont think i can make it across town to the steel yard before they close so i guess i will do that tomorrow... i am going to use 1/4" plate and mount it from the body mounts and then weld a piece like it was dont at 90 with a break... then use some 1" square tube and build a step off it... my wife wants a step and i told her the nerf bars had to go

    Most people I've seen get the spindles and such from trailer places, but there are DIY tire carrier setups you can find online as well.

    You say "simple mind" I say "common sense" like knowing the correct spelling for the word "trailer."
