Today I fought my rear brake lines, got one of two extended lines installed over the course of several hours. More in my build if you're interested.

I love mine, but they may be getting replaced with something even bigger when I get this lift put on. I also like that you can pick them up so cheap from new Rubicon owners who pull them off immediately. I paid $450 for a new set of 5 with 5 jeep wheels too. Sold the wheels for $250!
 
I th9ink I am going to order the adjustable panhard as well. I am going to be running the Toytec Superflex and might add it for peace of mind.

You'll definitely notice that your rear axel is pulled to the passenger side without it. I think plenty of guys are running a lift without the pan hard bar, I'd just prefer an accurate alignment.
 
Received my adjustable panhard bar from Sonoran Steel and unofficially bought a 4xinnovations front bumper


I was looking into it when he posted it up. Price is alright but didn't want the front receiver hitch and hexagon holes cut out in the front. OCD thing. Just gonna go with the original buy, CBI.

I'm not thrilled with the receiver hitch but that's something I can get over. I'll end up just running a hitch cover over it and hopefully forgetting about it. I do a fair amount of fishing so if need be, I'll use it to hold a fishing rack in certain parts of the summer. As for the hexagon cuts, I'll probably throw some PIAA lights in them to fill the space. Personally, I like the holes because they look difference from what most people have. That and I'll throw some of Rigid's DOT approved square lights in the smaller circular holes to get away from the round look. For the price I'm paying, I can't really complain because this and Shrockworks are my favorite looking bumpers out there right now.
 
Finally added my seat heaters, wet okole covers, and got it all temporarily wired onto a fuse in the RMTR Relay box. Why does the evap canister have to be right where I want to put it!? Stupid thing...

Also got the underbody all coated in fluid film. I'm really hoping it keeps all the salt off this winter here. Gotta try something though.
 
I ordered new shift/lockup solenoids for my 97LTD. Now I need to find a decent pan gasket and settle on which transmission fluid I want to use since I'll be flushing all the old crap out when I swap the solenoids. Walmart has that synthetic Valvoline for about $18 a gallon. Thinking maybe 4 gallons of that should do it.

Anyone have a recommendations for a good pan gasket brand or are they all about the same?

 
Just ordered my panhard bar from Steve, @ (SS) then spent the next 15 minutes B.S.'ing about past, present, and future vehicles. Really cool guy, even though I called right in the middle of his day, he still took the time to talk.

Thanks Steve!
 
I like they way those look, they are so cheap right now $136 that I might just buy them and sell my current size.

I really tried not to buy them. I was going for a more AT tire but they are just too cheap to pass on. I picked up 5 for under $300. They look way better than I was expecting which will make the next set even harder not to buy
 
Just ordered a front set of Wet Okole's (taupe w/ full piping in black) in celebration of crossing 400,000 km.

No joke, Steve rocks. I called him for a BB kit minus the calipers and even though he was basically just ordering Toyota parts for me, he still took the time to chat about what I was doing with the truck and explain in detail the differences between the 199 and 231 mm upgrade options.
