    seems like you made decent progress! I thought that you were supposed to weld IFS front? guess i was wrong? how did it affect your steering?

    I wouldn't weld the front on your solid axle or lunchbox locker, selectable is the only way to go up front if you like being able to steer. Our 85 has an ARB up font and it is still a little difficult to steer. Then you just need hydro assist :D

    got some bad/ good news

    I've decided against the efi conversion (for now) and I've decided to make some money and buy a car trailer so i can actually tow this crap bucket to the trails, and yes i know that eventually I'll grow to hate this carb setup and want to do a 22re swap, but that will be a problem for future Blake so ill let that asshole figure it out, so until then, fuck you future Blake :D
