Basket's Build

It's a rhetorical question don't worry!

Here is my list but I don't want to do it in the gravel so it will start after I have a garage door. Hopefully.

I need to redo my upstairs shower, but I have jeep plans this winter.

Do I push the Jeep plans back, or do I shower downstairs until summer? 😏

I'm forgoing working on my Jeep in order to rebuild my deck. If they weather turns crappy then I can move inside to work on it. In your case thrown down a tarp and a heated blanket :).

In your case, I would only do one thing at a time. Don't remove all the parts at once. Accomplish little wins at a time. If the weather is nice for a bit, work on the Jeep. If it's crappy, work on the house. If you only work on one Jeep project at a time, it will be easier to reassemble should you need it for something.

The real problem is having the money to do both lol. I do mostly ass sitting as I wait for the money for the next thing. So the weather unfortunately doesn't matter, I have a finite amount of money to blow before sand hollow so new projects eat into planned projects.

Realistically I'll probably put off MR2 upgrades for the shower.
 
I don’t think that’s it. It doesn’t look like what I ordered before and it’s aluminum.

The wizard can probably hook you up with a finished knuckle for a great price

I don’t even know what a “finished” knuckle is. LOL! I ordered his 17” BBK and it comes with new knuckles. Are you saying I don’t need the tapered insert with the new knuckles?

I also ordered raised sway bar brackets and hoping to install all this soon. I better get out of Basket’s thread and get on my own.

You should give him a call, he has definitely swapped knuckles before with pre-tapered ones. IIRC the ones he swapped weren't the insert, they were just milled with the flipped taper.

Well, mine already shipped. He probably noticed I was doing a TR Flip, so he may have just done it. Thanks. I just didn’t know.
