Installed a torq locker in the front diff today with the help of my father in law. Took about 4 hours, well 4 hours to do everything but about 5 minutes to install the actual locker.
Got the cruise control servo installed, the throttle linkage done, and the necessary hole in the firewall cut and painted.
Wiring needs to be routed and dressed, and things hooked up under the dash, and hopefully everything will work!

Swapped out my tires and wheels with some JL Rubicon take-offs. For more details on the swap and size comparisons with what I had, visit my build page for all the specs. https://wranglertjforum.com/threads/codamans-2004-jeep-wrangler-rubicon.9347/post-789675

Hey, I got "the business" because I "didn't wipe my tub" the other day when I put my risers in, figured I'd just pass the joy along...

lol, I cant see over the hood on my 06, I could on the 99 I borrowed for a few months, will this make the seats too high I am 5' 9 ?
That was one of the first upgrade I did. 02 Sahara and at stock height I didn't feel I could see the trail immediately in front of the jeep and I'm 6'. With the risers my view is much improved.Any other advantage other than a new Alien shade hat

Ongoing project: I have been working on putting together a set of full doors for a while. Got the doors back from the paint shop last week so I put the driver's door back together and on today. New hardware and weatherstipping and (don't flame me) I added power door locks. Will put the passenger door back together next weekend and build a cart for the half doors. They'll be the summer set.
And here is me with factory full doors wanting half doors lol. You couldn't write a book on it! lol
