I had a great learning after cutting the tub and frame. The more you brace BEFORE the cut, the less hassle you will have putting it back together.

The only concrete plans I had at this point is stretch to LJ length, SOA in the front and link the rear. Drivetrain, axles, tire size are yet to be determined. I went through the possible cut locations and felt cutting just below the step would be best as it provides an extra bit of interior...

A couple of years ago I bought a TJ to get into the Offroad scene. It's been a lot of fun, but it's a rather small vehicle for my family and our gear, also the wheelbase doesn't seem ideal for our Offroad adventures. I found myself looking at LJ's and JKU's and the extra room they offer. I...

Great looking rig, one of the inspirations for my build.

I'm in Santaquin, I'm down to go wheeling when your ready. There are some fun trails within and hour or so of us we can hit. Currently driving a mild built TJ, but I have a YJ build holding down jackstands in my garage I hope to finish in the next few months (read years).

Thanks Zuk, this helps me tremendously! If your cool with it I would like to stop by at some point to see how you did your frame, and see the rig overall.

Would you mind sending me a picture of your truss as well as steering?

Looking for opinions on trusses for a 05'+ Super Duty Dana 60 that will someday find a home under a linked YJ. Artec offers two truss options for this axle, a high profile as well as a low profile. Both trusses options can be fitted with full hydro mount. Any opinions on the advantages of one...

Did you notice if the screetching setup used bearings or UHMW blocks?

Does anyone have experience with leaf spring sliders? Do they work? They look easy enough to fabricate, look like they should be at least as robust as shackles, if not more so. Appear to be a good solution to keep a leaf sprung rig low. I have read the boxes bend, which shouldn't be too...

If it had a D60 someone must have already upgraded to the 44. I reached out to him last night and asked if he could take a picture of the axle knuckle. He replied with "If your wondering if it's the Dana60 or Dana44, it's a 44". At this point I'm just going off his word, he sounded very...

Thanks for the leads, but no unicorns.

. That's great to hear they are so robust, I plan to stick with an Atlas. To run this t-case I will need to change it to 27 spline (or possibly 32) input shaft and 1350 yolks, should be around $300 in parts from AA. Anyone interested in taking a GM passenger 60 in partial trade toward a...

Yeah, I wouldn't expect you would want to run the 1310 yolks. No worries at all, I'll either sell the Atlas or buy a driver 60.

If you go driver drop is your front 60 axle available? Your running 4.88 with detroit if I remember correctly?

Hey Bart, I actually messaged you on FB hoping you might be interested in a trade. I am not the original owner of this transfer-case, so I can't provide information on miles or time on the case. Previous owner ran it in a YJ behind a 6cyl/999. Manufactured in 2004, 2-speed 4.3:1, 23 spline input...

Thanks for the suggestion. I gave AA a call to check the feasibility of swapping output location, it turns out the case machining determines the output. So if I want a passenger output I need to purchase a passenger drop case. While the case cost is not as much as I would have expected, when you...

Well, one thing is clear, that is I'm not clear on the direction of this build. I now have a passenger drop D60, a driver drop Atlas, and a 91 YJ I intended to leave leaf sprung front for the time being. Don't ask me how I get myself into these situations. So where would you go from here? GM...

You have a TH400 to Atlas adapter? pm sent

I asked a local transmission shop for a ballpark quote on a full rebuild of a 700r4 and was told $1,200-1,500 does that sound about average? I did not specify if that was in or out of vehicle.
