it looks like the block was cut out to accept the shock with a torch.loos like its got a flange on each side and is bolted to the block

For now just improving what i have

1 new rear end
2 front bumper
3 rear bumper
4 sliders

7 more things to come :D

With winter coming i still have to keep it as a plow truck. So it will be slow going

F@$king jeeps. Was going to fozzy the rear end but i can not find some side gears to fit my  carrier the spiders are all the same but not the axle gears. There are 2 different size gears and mine are the small gears :X:X:X:X

I thought you just weld up the spiders for a fozzy locker and keep the same side gears,

The ones that bronco sent rebel were just spiders, might be quite hard to get them back in if you weld up a few teeth in the side gears too.


 

BTW I like your bumper

you can do either your spiders or axle gears. The problem is i want a spare set when i weld mine up.

Yeah you can do it either way and still get it apart ,you just can't weld anything to the case . Yes he has the (small)
side gears.....about the same size as my spider's when we compared them the other night !
