ummm, your brake line brackets are attached to the upper arms instead of the frame? Should be like this, soft line to the spindle, hard line to the frame.

I think so too, but my budget can only afford rusty 100s :) I still need to do the timing belt & valve covers (which have snapped bolts), which I haven't done since the purchase, and who knows what state they're in. Maybe come spring... for now I keep rocking and it's going for 1500+ mile trip...

You'll be fine. One time I had one of my 37s explode on the road (didn't bring a spare 5th 37, duh), so I drove over 180 miles on a stock tire at the rear with my stock 4:30 gears and ARB locker — just stay under 60. It still drove fine, nothing exploded, no shavings even. I did an oil drain...

Added custom tire carrier to my ARB bumper using 4xinnivations carrier hinge. There is room for 40s that are ahead and it’s made out of 3x3 square tube for the times when I slide into the rocks/trees.

@mokrunka - yes, from hitting some big rocks see my other post and below https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/the-mud-100-series-photos-thread.91953/page-1057#post-16399240

Swapped the rear lower links & cleaned her up after playing on the rocks, waiting on the tail light from the scrap yard now.

the rocks weren't kind!

took her for a spin in some rock gardens :bounce: definelty need to step to 40s, 37s feel small now...

Went snow wheeling, next to 105, both truck on 37s

Finally got the JK sliders welded up and finished with the winch mount. She is ready to go for winter adventures.

Extended them, and picture of the winch plate from the front and another side profile. Not a welder, but previous projects held up the abuse, so this should too :deadhorse:

Latest update on this mostly stock build running 37s. I dented the rear driveshaft while crawling in the fall, so I replaced it with a brand-new Toyota driveshaft (ouch—that was pricey). I’ll still be re-sleeving the original one as a backup. A couple sections of the exhaust also fell apart due...

I cut the filler neck near the fill point and run what I think 56mm marine grade fuel hose directly to the tank. Been fine so far. Quick and easy repair. Mine is 2000 LX

I got the front spacers from Bora, they are 1" thick just enough to get the tire away from the upper control arm
