Well got the crawl box and adapter together. Had to order a shift spring and bolt for the detent ball so I can install the shifter. Plan is install the crawl box section to the tranny and then the atlas last so I can see how much I need to clock it.

Got the atlas in today and filled. Got the levers adjusted and everything clears. Had to change my front drive line to my spare square front to ditch the cv shaft. I'll have to get that one reworked. Started a simple frame for the center console and need to do the seat mounts. Rubicon trip coming up in a few weeks so I need to get cracking.

Think this is enough slip on the rear? This is where the driveline sits bolted up flange to flange. I know they don't compress in too much.

We usually set them up at 1.5" of compression at ride height

Framed the floor in and started the crossmember mount out of 3/8 flat bar that I will have to notch bend and weld to tuck everything up. I'll throw a few gussets on it as well.

Thanks dude.

No progress since we were working on the 92 but list before memorial day weekend is as follows

Shorten rear drive line
Build crossmember
Sheet metal tunnel
Front bump stops
Torque everything

That's it for now I am ordering a spartan for the front along with all the Yukon chromo stuff and flanges for the front and a grizzly for the 14 bolt this week from wfo. If I have time I will get the stuff installed in the front at least. Unless some wants to come over and play mechanic while I'm at work lol ill pay!

Well it was a pita but I pulled the atlas redid the studs and bolted it back in and clocked down a little.  Driveline angle was much nicer and I am still higher than my toy case was.
