Currently waiting on all my MOOG replacement steering components. I went with stock XJ draglink parts, and ZJ tierod parts. Then a tape measure toe, and its off to the alignment rack and for a tire balance.

I CANT WAIT TO DRIVE IT AGAIN !! I miss my DD. I've driving my 5th wheel pulling 6speed Cummins, nice truck ... but with 4:10's, your shifting like mad just to make it across the intersection ....

I need to finish the exhaust ... I might go with a shorter flowmaster. The current one looks like it might interfere with ebrake cables a bit.

OK ... I'm back with some pics from yesterday. My steering parts made it !!
-
-
I decided to go ahead and add my old 2" spacer to front ... this rake was bugging me :
-

-
From the front doesn't look bad, but from the back is noticeable.

-
Yesterday, the powdercoater asked me if I had anything else to do in satin black ... so, what the heck ... I pulled off the front diff cover, blasted it myself and handed it to him. Out drained clean, fresh fluid (recent service) What the heck, doesn't hurt to flush it out ! It was back today, with the rings...

So I managed to get everything in last night, tape measure the toe. Added the 2" spacer. Through the wheels back on, and took it down the road.

Road pretty good ! Caster is way off, but that's what an alignment is for.

Also added a RC country stabilizer that showed up day before yesterday.

I forgot one thing .... RE-ADJUST THE TRACK BAR !!

I could eyeball it from the flares, but I rather pull the wheels, and measure from the rotor face to the side of the uniframe ....
