We loosened the lug nuts and blocked up the front axle just enough to get the tires off the ground. Simple enough (especially that last one). Last but not least, have some pizza and sodas for lunch. I was running the factory draglink and had done the ZJ tie rod conversion some time back. First, remove the old draglink and tie rod. The morning’s work was to be pretty straight forward. Now THAT guy knows how to come prepared to the wrenching’ party! Scott showed up a few minutes later and we were officially underway (he had the tie rod end puller). I had fresh coffee ready when Les showed up with a box of Krispy Kreme donuts. I got Scott and Les to agree to a Saturday morning wrench session at my place. the Currie steering system that was sitting in my garage would do better if mounted on the TJ rather than sitting next to it. After surviving the Johnson Valley Thanksgiving run and Axle Alley right after that, I decided.
