    broke the passenger outer shaft on the 44. anyone have a spare?

    past that made a new 1350 rear driveshaft and finished welding the rear bumper and painted it

    to do list before next trip or till it can be daily driven/sold with a clear conscience:
    fix front outer stub
    add shocks
    crossover steering
    rear brake cylinder
    screw in dash
    and maybe weld rear axle up
    Red 81 CJ5, 35's, 4.10 and detroit, 4 to 1 dana 300, tbi efi, flat belly, cage, chromos and auzzie in front... sometimes runs. body damage to come

    How much lift does it have? I have a crossover tierod for ~8" of lift if you need it. Its from ORD and is the bent style to clear the factory engine crossmember.
    On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"

    well i decided to keep it, and have since found a front dana 60 for it which i will pick up later this month.

    to do
    rock sliders
    pickup and install dana 60
    shocks
    rear anti wrap bar
    new rear spring plates
    eventually dual t-cases
    other misc odds and ends

    now i just need to decide if i want to do hydro assist steering or shell out the money for full hydro steering
