Hello all,

Yes this is my first post on this board. But I noticed that there has not been any new build threads in a while. So I thought I would share mine. I'm new to this board, but not new to Grand Cherokee's. I've been reading on here for a while just never posted. So here is my current build....

96 ZJ, Hummer rims with 38 TSL SX's, 60 front (ARB) 5.38's, 14 bolt rear(Detroit) 5.38's, and a 4 speed Atlas with a cutting brake.

Being that your ZJ is a 95' I don't know if the fittings on the Master cylinder is the same as mine. But mine were a 12mm front line and a 10mm rear line. If there the same and you just want to upgrade I'd recommend A Dodge Durango cylinder. It has a 1 and 1/8 bore. Here is a thread I started that might help answer your questions and the options out there

I like that secondary Atlas support, I've been nervous about mine hanging off of the bellhousing

I've read about people breaking the rear of the transmission off. And with it being a 4 speed, I wasn't taking and chances.

Plus, it will be super easy to integrate a nice skid into that. Very nice!

Help yourself. I don't care. It held up to the frist run. Only time will tell how it holds up.

Thanks!

**Oh, and I did read that you went back and filled in the holes, but it will erode much sooner than the rest of the trail creating mud holes if it rains, then people go around the mud creating bypasses, then eventually the trail gets closed. Happens time and time again.**

Get over it. Did you also read that I went back and filled in the holes. And I didn't hurt the tree. Just having a little fun.

You "say" you did not hurt the tree, but I am sure the "tree huggers" would "say" different.

It is things like this that are getting trails closed all over the country. You need to be more respectful of the enviroment, so as not to give any ammunition to the enviromentalists.

Lesson learned. Usualy I'm more respectful of the enviorment. I have logged many hours towards repair, biulding, cleaning up and sign of trails here in the Northwest. Getting my project done and just being out got the better of me.
