Procomp/rancho lift parts per @CodaMan are on the way and so are some BMB brakes. Sucked wrecking a few weeks ago but it’s a rare opportunity to start fresh and build based on what I want and how I use it.Now to get started on the important stuff, like getting it ready to head up here and wheel some!!!!

Got my 500 break-in check up done on me gears. I got the go ahead to let it fly !
Now, I need to research what speedo gear I need for 35in tyres. Got on the freeway onramp, found the fuel cut off is 95mph. With the speedo gear in there now, it was only 60mph.

Where did you order it from? If direct from Savvy how long did it take to arrive?
Thank you for the offer. I went and bought a 41 tooth before I seen your post. That should slow down the speedo and I'll be set up for when I get the 35in tyres.
Where did you get those POS tiresDrove round trip 500 miles plus sight seeing to Pigeon Forge,Tenn. for our 28th anniversary. Had a great weekend, top down in Cades Cove and around Gatlinburg.
Centramatic wheel balancers surprised me by taking a fairly new set of mud tires from shaking the Jeep at 55-60 to smooth as glass up to 75-80 as the tires “wore in” to proper balance at speed. It was a relief to feel 33” mud tires on beadlocks actually go from “maybe we should turn around and drive the Lincoln” to “ I’m so thrilled, so glad we brought it.”
Friday night leaving The Island, a large tourist attraction I found some ne’er do well had removed a KC smiley cover and laid it in front of my right rear tire. Pure evil.
I plan to recreate the events of Friday, Oct 24 at approximately 10 p.m. at The Island in Pigeon Forge in a coming thread. Please don’t let your children read it. Crime of such heinous nature is best left to adult audiences.
