I have had an Everlast 205si for about 5 years. I love the way it welds no complaints at all there, well maybe more amps 250 would be plenty for anything I do. I do regret getting a multiprocess machine. If I replaced it I would get a separate tig machine and plasma. Probably a cheap plasma at...

The drag link and track bar angles and lengths still need to match to prevent bumpsteer.

Love all the choices so far. Ironically my Silver LJ has the same scuff on the passenger rear corner. I have a narrowed 05 D60 and Sterling with elocker and 4.88s. I'm considering selliing them and building 9's due to using a 37-38" tire.

Mounting location looks good. You don't' look to have many options for pads if you mount them behind the shock. Agree on articulating before welding them out. I would set the bumps to bottom out right before the shock shaft bumper touches the body. Shocks are to expensive to not protect them.

I like the idea of milling the factory knuckle flat and bolting on a steer arm vrs the expense of purchasing new knuckles. The factory knuckles are very strong. We just need a high steer solution. I have noticed a couple of different versions of the style of steer arm you used. Most use the rear...

I ran a Lexan windshield in my YJ for about 6-8 years. It gets scratches from dust/mud and limbs over time. I decided to go back to glass after not being able to see driving up v notch in the afternoon at Morris Mtn. The sun hits the scratches and creates a big glare. I only ride with the...
