Barricade flat fenders. I like them so far. Some of the "powder coat" is flaking but I was expecting that to happen based on the reviews I read before buying. Good for the money. The rear fenders are Smittybuilt.
Good video thanks for posting. That's a shame about your power stop rotors, I wasn't aware that the 99 Tj used two different rotors either. Do you know if they would fit my 03 Tj ? I might be interested in them .
I don't think so. apparently some 1999's have an overall height (hat depth) of 3.21" and some have an overall height of 3.07". mine was the shorter of the two while the powerstop rotors are the taller. It appears as I look through some cart parts websites; the taller version is 1997-1999 and the shorter is 1999 and up. Oh well, the front axle I am building is from a 1997 so I can possibly use the rotors there.
Nothing Fancy. Just a Dana 30 with Chromoly shafts, a lunchbox locker, 4.88's and some bracing. I may finally be picking up a 8.8 this week. Once I get it built, I'll do the swap.
Jeep had 170k when i bought it and had been in the north east the first 10 years of its life. Surprised its still even on the road, not exactly ruined lol
Looks like that axle seal is leaking aswell
SUBBED!!!!
What kind of fenders do you have?

Hopefully you will be able to use them then . What axle are you building for the front if you don't mind me asking ?

danm my 2004 sahara Jap Import had identical problem with the depth of the rotor . wish i was this vid 2 months ago
Are you going to do videos on the front and rear diffs ? That's so cool you found a 8.8 finally.
Oh god your poor Tj you’ve ruined it... look at that under carriage and brake caliper

That's not even close to the worst northern jeep I've seen. It actually looks great compared to many!
