Alrighty then, this is build thread #2 for the 1999 SE with an AX5 transmission. It's a recovery build from a very specialized build that I have now to a more generally useful build, taking into account all of the good advice that I've ignored over the years.
First up: 33x12.50 tires on 15x8" rims. 4" backspacing. Alloy in gunmetal grey.
Axles: Dana 35 with 4.88 or 5.13 gears and a Revolution Super 35 kit with Detroit Locker. I've driven Detroit equipped vehicles off and on since the 70's, so they are no mystery to me. Dana 30 in front with a Powertrax No Slip and alloy axles.
Black Magic stock upgrade kit for the front. Centric rotors, Centric stock calipers, Black Magic front pads and YJ brake lines.
Savvy / Currie 3" lift kit with adjustable track bars and Savvy aluminum control arms. Currie aluminum front antirock. Rancho 5000x shocks.
Tom Wood's CV driveshafts and a SYE.
JKS 1 1/4" body lift kit.
Brown Dog MML
Novak cable transfer case shifter
UCF Lopro aluminum transfer case skid
Various aluminum armor bits like gas tank skid
Savvy front and rear aluminum bumpers
Warn M8000 with synthetic aftermarket winch line, under hood remote mounted solenoid
OK, start shooting holes in this. I will gladly accept and consider expert advice this time around.
