Rear Shock Relocation Brackets

[thance]

I hate to see what you have to charge for the brackets after factoring this into the cost:

lmao... you two can fight over the prototype set after Jon's done taking measurements

BUT this might be delayed a bit. I had a little chunk of change set aside to help fund my rear bumper and i had somewhat given up hope that I was ever going to get one. So the plan was to use that money to finally get a decent welder and put the rest of it plus some tax return money towards the superlift this spring.

Well as of yesterday it looks like Jon's serious about making bumpers again. If he can promise it's here before Christmas I may have to pull the trigger on that as priority #1 and that'll become my "winter vacation fun project" instead of these brackets.

I'll keep my eye out for a decent (but cheap $$) used welder... otherwise i'll use some of my tax return this spring to get the welder and start this project back up (and push the SL into next fall/winter)

Hmmmm not cool lol

Hey it may still happen... lol i'm happy i didn't order the welder last weak. If I find a nice used one before my time off at work during the holidays i'll be really busy in the "shop"

Does this mean your not selling your lift!

Lol we're still good there dude. Might as well get phase 1 out of the way regardless.

Lmao Ron. Jeez maybe I should just model them and send the drawings to a machine shop. Takes the fun out of prototyping though!

Whatever helps to get these on my XK I'm all for

[Matt]

I didn't realize you guys would want them so bad.... it was just another idea i had that i figured i'd have fun with.

Well the bumper is officially on order as of today so the welder and shop tools are on hold. So i'll play these by ear; maybe borrow my brother-in-laws welder and use this opportunity to learn how to arc weld...

It's not that I want them because I need them. For some reason I have never been hung up on my shock brackets. They don't even have a single scratch on them. I want them because I like having a Jeep with parts no one else has!
