I'd get one made out of staino or exhaust pipe when you have the chance (I'm assuming this is the plan anyway). Will look 10X better, actually I'll say it, will actually look good.

lol.

Has anyone rebuilt their climate controls in the dash? Mines not selecting correctly and won't close the valve when I flick it between temperatures.

I probably havnt made much sense, I'm nervous about opening the dash and finding the problem

Can anyone confirm, an SJ70 transfer will bolt right up if I use SJ70 jack shaft and front drive shafts?

I believe you just need the leafy case, mounts and jack shaft.

I have some mounts welded to a roctoy ring... Probs can do you a better price than the wreckers and it will be stronger, depending on what type of gears you're using as to whether its necessary or not. I think you may need longer bolts too but might have to confirm that with someone else

I thought that but the plug works, no I may try change that and see.

As for the clock, the light flicks on and off irrelevant to my headlights

Looks like the plan is, 2" body lift, 2-3" suspension lift, gearing, 33s and then a rear locker once it's all sorted.

Que "you'll break stuff" replies.

Ill drive accordingly and if stuff breaks, so be it..

You'd be more capable on 31s. :thefinger:

But seriously, Things will break before getting too far along a track on 33s. Whereas with 31s you'd likely drive it (sensibly) without any issues.

I'm not being a hater here, Hell, I drive a Coily. The problem is with a coily when stuff does break its a pain in the ass to "beef up" the driveline due to the Coily's unique nature (mostly the gay front diff.)

Having said that, It would be cool to see a coily diffs rocking 33's 8)

Yea does look like it would be a head stuff if I did shafts etc, but I like going overboard and making it work. I enjoy the challenge
