“The” Cookie Monster

Not sure if I shared these or not but the towers and struts are also tacked in place.

Really coming along well Bud! Everything is looking great. I can’t wait to see what the next few weeks brings!

So was this the wider mount of the 2?

This was the rear mount which wasn’t the issue.  The front mount is the one where I went wider.  Haven’t even begun up there yet.   

[Weebz]

So the rear is fully set.  Just need to final burn the brackets and tabs in.   This is almost full droop.   Not enough weight to hold them all the way out.  

 

 

 

 

[Jdofmemi]

Are those 14" or 16"?

[Weebz]

16”

So much droop, are you going to run limiting straps?

Don’t know yet.    I need to get my driveshafts in with the wheels on to see if it binds it or not.  If it doesn’t than no.

Nice pics Brute

 

Looks good

[Weebz]

I just hit select photo and upload.  What it does from there is beyond my control.   Lol

[6wt]

Looking good brah…

[BHaner]

[Weebz]

Lol….really been a super slow period.   Rear is pretty well done.  Still waiting on my other set of lower link brackets (should be here today) so I can order my links once I set the final width.   Truss and all are final burned in.   Painted things up.   Tank will go in tonight.  Just need a hand bringing it up.  

[Weebz]

Moved up to the front and brought the axle up and this is where I’m stuck.   Those MB brackets won’t cut it.  Angle is too steep and too short.   I trimmed up the narrow ones I originally bought and they will fit but are really limited and I don’t like where it puts my shock tabs.  Sooooo, I am now officially going into the tub.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Weebz]

And fuck these iPhone photos.   

[BHaner]

Wow... Yeah.  I think my DTD front brackets go way higher than those do...  Angle looks the same.. But because they are taller it doesn't seem as bad.

 

For reference...

Fixed.

[Weebz]

The angle is far worse than it looks.   That’s at stuff.  Dropped it would be bound completely.

Did you decide on the Genright brackets for the front?

[Crawl2Camp]

Did MB claim those mounts would work on a JK?  I only saw them for JL/JT.
