It's Frank, right?  The car looks awesome.  Call me a wierd-ass, but I love the 'flakes a lot better than the cobra's.  I guess I'm a bit of a purist when it comes to that.  Plus the fact that I had an '84 for a few months that rocked the '87-'88 .  Looked like yours only a lot more beat up.  I, too, found some parts like that inside my ground-up 7.5", except the springs, none of those, probably because mine's not T-L.

Anyway, car is coming along VERY nicely.  Coming to CJ this year?

Hey! Take it easy on the equipment. Those parts had such a protected life, and now you go beating up on them ;) 

BTW, its still slow ;)

I noticed you put some CHE parts on the back end. Did you get the adjustable lowers? If so that might help even up the rearend for ya. Otherwise it's still looking as good as ever. Keep up the good work!

From the pics, they don't look like adjustables, but I'm not sure.  I wish CHE sold adjustable lowers with standard uppers together as a set of 4, but alas, they don't.  I might be buying 'em soon...

-85turbotbird- if you want any pictures of the over the axle portion, or any specific pictures, let me know and I will be happy to help you out...

-nirvanagod- They are not the adjustables. I guess they make them I am not shure... I really like them! If anybody is thinking it is worth it or not, DO IT! It is a big improvement!

-ifixyawata- Thanks for the compliments! I like the snowflakes as well. It will probably not get the Cobra wheels put back on it. As stated before, they will most likely end up on the 88 when it gets back from paint here in a week or two... But, no idea if the snowflakes are a permanent thing. I have one or two ideas floating around. It should be good though ;) Heck yes I am coming to CJ!!! :D

Thank you for all the compliments!
