    Diffs are dropped back off.
    Links, axle truss, and diff guard are all done (besides full welding some of it). Frame plating, towers and panhard are next. Then just a lot of little things are left. Probably about 1.5 weeks left until it's completely done.

    Are you having them rebuild everything too? (new bearings/seals). Just seems weird they left the knuckles on when they are all of like 8 bolts away from taking them off lol.

    I am a bit surprised they didnt at least pressure wash things before they started. Looks like a ton of dirt they could have gotten off with a few minutes of a pressure washer.

    Still looking good though!

    Yeah they will, picked up the rebuild kit from torfab. Also new wheel bearings and rotors.
    The knuckles were leaking so badly. I doused them in simple green and degreaser and pressured washed them after I bought it and they still ended up like this.

    Were you going to do hellfire knuckles or just work the steering out with the stockers? Hadn’t seen anything about them early on in the build unless I missed it

    I thought about doing hellfires but I think stock knuckles will be fine. Might upgrade in the future, we'll see

    Final assembly is happening :woot: should be on it's on weight by the end of today. Should be getting some pics once it's the coil overs/axle/links are all back in.
    Still have brake lines and a lot of small things left. Assuming PRP limit straps arrive today or tomorrow I should be picking it up Friday

    I've done a mod or two
    I was going to get that kit, I'm settled in now after moving so I might as well. Got a whole service day planned since I need to do my brakes too.
