Another Jeep build..this time a TJ

draglink is what connects the steering box/pitman arm to the axle knuckle.

panhard bar or trackbar is for the whole bumpsteer thing.

Wow heinie! Good find on that pic. That pic should be a sticky somewhere. There have been countless discussions on 3-link setups all over this site and that visual aid could really help folks out.

Agreed. Thats a damn good explanation summed up in a pic!

I got the Yota running! So far no more idling issues, I took Sherman to the gas station to fill it up. Tossed in some seafoam and bought a new optima red top. I'm excited!!

Nice! Now thats a scale OPTIMA! I love the scale dented up fenders and flat irons on there! hahaha

[ser3100]

Heres how i did the TLT's. It could be done on a K44.

Finally someone else who uses seafoam! I've got an old diesel tractor and I give it a sniff once a year and it perks it right up

I'm sure there are folks who like this brand or that brand. But seafoam works for me. I use it in lawn mowers, Ford F and E series, an Izuzu NPR turbo deisel, and my trail rig. It works wonders in the fuel system and the crank case.

I have never used it in my wife's Subaru nor did I ever put it in my old STi. They never seemed to need any, just oil changes seemed to give them some pep.

Damn dude, nice pad! I wonder how much a pad like that would go for out here in Cali:(.

It's Georgia, it costs nothing compared to Cali. My sister lives in Glendale and says she could never afford a 3 bedroom out there but could if she came back especially now.

[ser3100]

I agree! Id imagine something like that would cost a pretty penny out west!.

I'd say yes! When I saw you post a while back that you appreciate when people build scalers that have a correct track width and tires that are flush or barely sticking out of the fenders, I assumed we were separated at birth. But the STi just validates this more

You have 1:1 land cruiser as well? Right? Just another validation.

Your scooby looks great man!

I love WRB but I hated owning it.

Ya i have a fj 60 haha! Wrb is beautiful but too many people have it. I'm debating putting white wheels on my STI actually haha.

White wheels ought to look pretty good. What brand and model of wheels are you thinking about getting for your STi?

Are you into that aggressive fitment style? Or stock offset?
