05 Flame Red TJ Build

Maybe @NashvilleTJ thread. IDK. Page 4 in his thread is where he installed them.

I don't think it was in his thread.

The cross member modification was discussed in this thread.

my fault didn’t notice @Alex01 linked it.

Gonna body lift it? I'll have 6 savvy picks here in the next couple weeks. You're welcome to them. That will leave you to locate 5 more, but with as many people as are lifting the rear cross member, it shouldn't be hard to find.

I got 6 pucks from @Alex01. 2 for the grill and 4 of the normal. That means I need 5 more (I think).

You need one for the grill in the center of it. Then 6 for the body mounts in the middle unless you do the raised mounts and then 4 for the rear. 2 on the shock crossmember and 2 for the very back unless you eliminate the butt crack.

Sounds complicated.

i think the two you're thinking of are the extenders for the little rubber bumpers

Yes, I have the two small ones. I forgot the ones on the shock crossmember that @Wildman mentioned. So, I need 7 more. I’ll be close if @Mike_H Pitches me 6. Just 1 away.

You need 11 body pucks total and then the 2 little snubbers on the front edge of the nose.

If you do the raised body mounts then you only need 5 body pucks and the 2 snubbers.

You just need to know someone with a welder. And a plasma cutter helps to take the old body mounts off quicker. But a sawall works too.

Only needs 3 if he does a BCE

Yep. A weekend at my house should be long enough. If we do both TJ's it might take a long weekend....

I got my cross member raised today. I'll give a count tomorrow. Pretty sure I have at least 6. The grill ones will be the sticker.

What do we do with the inner C’s on the Savvy MUA system? Seems like they would conflict.

@jjvw handled this. Chop and flip the ends of the cross member and weld a bit you cut off from the C to the frame to bolt to, it’s really clean.

That makes perfect sense. Thanks.

I’d link the posts but you’re probably familiar with how detailed his thread is. As a rough time frame I think it was last summer or fall.
