LSD in the rear, open front. Had to pull cable once on a section on Cadillac Hill, but mostly cause I was being a puss and was playing it safe. Scarred up my fender flares a little bit, and a few dings underneath, but nothing too bad. I think I might have my old OME rear TB bracket laying around somewhere. You can have it if you want.
I’d love it, I definitely need one. How is the LSD in the rocks? Maybe a PM for shipping details? Let me know if you find it easily. Don’t look too hard on my account but it sure wound be much appreciated.

LSD wasn't ideal, but better than nothing. I'll look for that bracket tonight and shoot you a PM.
When you plan on the 35s, don't forget to budget in new steering and brakes.
Ya for sure. I’m going to stick with 31s and a small lift for now and slowly build up but slow could be fast depending on how you look at it. That’s what’s nice about no payments.

Well.. check this out
It’s hard to see but it’s bent from the spring. That’s an issue, I suppose I needed some bumpstop and a new one?

Where's the jounce bumper? Also, looks like you're also missing the upper spring perch rubber pad.
Well dang, my project just grew a bit. I need to get this properly set up. Advice?

Not sure on the spring pads. Maybe a wrecking yard for some used ones. I'll do a little searching.
I joined this forum to keep my latest TJ purchase more of a overland type Jeep to drive to and from trails.
My other TJ is built like you are wanting one day. Here is the latest picture of it. I dont post it here a lot bc not a lot of hardcore crawler fans here.

Find a salvage 35 with 4.10’s. Look for a four cylinder TJ and it should have the 4.10 they would be a nice addition to 31s and 3.07’s. This keeps it cheap.
But if you are talking about building a serious rock crawler be prepared to learn and lot and spend a lot of coin. I have a lot tied up intoy Jeep collection. But i was able to budget a crawler in college. So it can be done. It depends on how bad you want it and how much you are willing to learn to do yourself.
I, for one, would like to see more details. While I'm not going for a crawler build, I can appreciate a good build no matter what its purpose.
Yes that is the end goal right there! I could stare at that rig all day. You have the best of both worlds. I know it’s expensive and I’m learning new things everyday. Thanks for the post and I’d also be interested in some details of that great looking machine.
