Thought I'd post this now as the Hallowharrie weekend is coming up.

Before



After





Did some 'keep it running right' work first, including;

Reman rear brake calipers, rubber hoses (front rubber hoses next), new fluid
Fuel filter
Upper (Moog) and lower (Mitsu) ball joints
New tie-rods (Moog)
New idler arm (Mitsu; pitman arm is fairly recent)

Mods include;

33" procomp muds
Front diff and rear axle swap with factory locker and 4.636 gears
Replaced trailing arms with much better ones from the JY
50mm Sequoia coil spacers and t-bar crank
Rear diff protection.
Grand Cherokee ARB front bumper and beefed up the frame horns with 3/16 plate. Added some cheap lights and put the factory fogs back on with minor modification
Factory headlight washers (still need to install the relay)
Cut rear quarter panels off and relocated the drain tube
CB in a temporary location
Fish plates of the frame lift joints

I think that's it <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> Can I call it an 'LSR' now please?

Still to come (stuff I have the materials for at least) are rear bumper, sliders, rework the rear end of the exhaust and cap the rear quarters

I made the diff protection out of 2mm plate. I'm not sure if I went far enough with it. The plate extends underneath as far as the 3rd and is fully welded in place



To relocate the drain tube after cutting off the rear quarters I used a hole saw. Easy job <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />



Fish plates for piece of mind. I still need to drop the tank and add the inside plates. Angelo, we should do that and your truck on the same day <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />



The old rusty rear axle out. Much easier to swap the rear axle compared to the front diff. What a pain that is <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />



<img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" /> to two people, Larry for helping me source some parts and Agnelo who innocently come round to talk about skid plates and ended up lying on my driveway holding a front diff over his head for a few hours <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/mrt.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Edit: Thanks to ncdieselwrench for pulling the trailing arms for me <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cheers.gif" alt="" />
