Mac, I don't remember, but was your Rubi TJ a 5 speed?

from what I research, the TJs all act different depending on your gearing and tranny.

I was almost willing to live with 32 and 373s, but if 4.10s is about the same, i can live with that.

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it to the work party. :cry: I leave this weekend to install a bunch of new games in SoCal. Hopefully, I will be back on Saturday. I might try to stop by if I get home early enough.

Ed,

Will you be able to do the brackets for my seats at this time even though I'm in Korea? Joe has the Jeep and the seats if you need anything.

okay, but I have the 5 speed and from what I can tell, 4.56 is what I should have.

I dunno. I'll, decide when I drive it with the 410s (I figure I'll add lockers sooin, so if I go 456 that will be the time to do it).

okay, we called it a night and did not finish the axle.

but most of the brackets are welded on, the axle is centered, and lemme tell you it's BEEFY.

we still have to get the spring mounts done and the brakes and bolt everything up. I won't have an e-brake for awhile since I neglected to order an adapter from MORE, but that's easily done.

may have to get some primer and flat black first to prevent rust.
