Hi all. I have a 97 GC limited v8 with 111,000 miles. i just bought it on 12-31-07 completely stock. Since i have done a 2" BB (temporary lift, waiting on 4.5" RE lift) inorder to clear my 31" Dayton MT's on black steel d-windows. Bought a 242 tcase which is on its way to my house. cant wait to have my 2wd option :driving: lol. Replaced drivers cv shaft. installed my cb yesterday night. I cut my muffler off right after the cat. lol im bending 3" pipe right now to run out the back to complete my cat-back. might do a high-flow cat but thats not a top priority for now. i need to open up my intake, im getting a ZJ snorkel for the 4.0 and modding it to work my ZJ. i know im a "newbie" but i know a bit about trucks and have been wheelin for 4 years now. :cool: sorry i dont have any pics up yet. gotta dig em outta my camera which isnt with me at the moment.

well here is a pic of what it looked like when i bought it. ABSOLUTELY GROSS!!!!!!!! so i told them i wasnt black and didnt want the rims so they dropped the price 1000 bucks and put the stock rims on that has new rubber on them althouh i really dont care because they werent on long either lol.

this pic is right after my BB (which btw i think is a shitty lift and CANT WAIT to do my 4.5 and hopefully claytons by the end of the year.) my limited rims got trashed when i hit a curb and blew the tires out and destoyed the rims lol. so i had to use these till i got my steelies in so i could mount my 31's

grr my camera is gay and i somehow deleted all the pictures on it!! grr so after it gets light out i will take more and post em up biotches! :flipoff2:

I know you just replaced the CV but on a zj its an easy upgrade to U-jointed shafts. Do a search on that. Also you are going to want to switch to a U-jointed front Driveshaft. With a 4.5" lift I promise you will break the stock one.

Yeah, pretty much. Most of the trails and rock climbs nobody gets out to take a video. I thought Id be funny and hit that hole real hard and see how far id get before I stopped, obviously not far

Where were you wheeling? I don't know the west side of OH very well, and that doesn't like anything we ran at painted rock...Its up near Mantua,ohio on the northeast side of ohio. A place called JeepSkool, 1500 acres of trails.

:smt104Parts are in the mail on there way here. As soon as they arrive and Ive got time to start the install, this will become a build thread, that is, unless you want pictures of my BB install or my 242 swap :doh:

I got my front uppers in the mail and installed them. Also recieved my steering today. Its an inverted T setup, so its not the best. I did order some JCR TRE poly spacers to help with the TRE roll. It is temporary until I can save up the fundage for the KOR u-turn kit. I had to do something because my stock steering was hitting my swaybar mount and I couldnt turn

Well, I messed with my front axle all last nite and shortened the lowers a bunch to pull the axle back a bit and adjust the pinion angle at the same time. My front axle was too far forward and was rubbing on my arb pretty bad at full stuff. All is good now and I got my front shaft back in. I had bad vibes between 40-55 mph so I adjusted it back some more and it now rides like a dream. No vibes at all. I had to sacrifice alot of caster, but oh well, gotta love the life of a LP D30, lol.

I picked up my HP30 today for 75 bucks! cant beat that! Ive got an 8.8 out of a 97 mountaineer that I got for free too. Started stripping the HP30. I got all the old control arms, old shocks, old steering and old brake calipers and rotors off. The stupid tracbar is siezed in the bracket on the axle end. Ive got to cut it out.

I went ahead and ordered the gears for both axles too, $484 dollars later I have a set of 4.56 gears for the HP30 and 8.8 along with both master install kits on their way to my house. UGH! That was expensive. I went with 4.56's because I plan to be on 35's in the future, and not any higher, so im not going to regear twice.

I still have to(not in order):

-Sand blast both axles $100
-Cut old brackets off the 8.8 and HP30
-Purchase new brackets for the 8.8 $200-$300
-weld new brackets onto the 8.8
-Purchase TnT Truss for the HP30 $600
-Weld truss onto HP30
-Pull the carrier out of the axle that is under my parts Jeep
-Install both gear setups $200
-Purchase Riddler diff covers for both axles $250
-Replace ujoints in front axle shafts $60
-Prime and paint both axles $30
-Rebuild both axles with new seals, bearings, spider gears and such $100
-Swap the Vanco brake kit over from the LP30 to the HP30
-Get new rear shaft made $300
-Get new front shaft made $250
-Purchase flange adapter for 8.8 $50

Im going to be buying my axle brackets for the 8.8 from ballistics fab I think. they have everything I need but the upper control arm mounts and the tracbar mount. Ill prolly get those from Ruff Stuff Specialties. Actually, i cant decide how I want to do the tracbar mount

Any thoughts on these bracket choices from you old timers that have done this swap? I cant find a good bracket for the tracbar, and I dont have the fundage to go long arms yet.

You have one super nice niner. I hope you have a way to protect those rockers when out wheelin.

I have a question, why the D30 truss? For $600, you could put that money into something else such as a rear bumper or chromoly shafts.

I figured if im going to build these axles, I might as well do it right. And if I ever sell them Ill get a pretty penney out of them, but now that you say that, I could skip the truss and get a rear bumper...:o

So I found a HD factory tracbar bracket that rustys carries, so thats what i will be using. they also carry the upper link brackets I need. So those will be ordered soon

^ Change of plans from that post. Rustys wants alot for those brackets, so for 100 more I can get the rear 8.8 truss from TnT that has the tracbar and upper link brackets already welded on. Im ordering that truss friday and pulling the 8.8 out of the parts mountaineer this weekend. Heres a couple pics of the gears and the Hp30
