I'm finally onto my newest build. A 2001 that I picked up to send my daughter to college in. She is back from school so I'm able to get to the build. This rig will be used for trails and towing an teardrop style trailer off highway.
What I have scavenged so far: 8.8 axle with disc brakes; Front brakes from a WJ; Front drive-line for SYE.
What I plan to buy: 4.5" Rough Country long arm lift kit; 17" rims with 33" tires; Fender flares; SYE kit; 4.10 gears with front and rear lockers.
Future fabrication and mods that I can do at home: Front and rear bumpers; Safari style top; Stroker engine.
The lift is going to be put on by a friend in southern Utah. He has a YouTube channel called Fab Rats and if you watch it Papa Dar and I were boyhood friends and learned to wrench together in his dad's shop.
Since I have been out of the game for about a decade I would appreciate any suggestions/info as to preferred lift kits, SYE kits, lockers, tires, rims, etc. I miss the group and want to get back out there with you in a capable rig.
Thanks, Hoss
