I'm not saying I'm the worst at updating my build thread... But I am extraordinarily awful at it.
All the brake lines went well, worked well, etc. I still think it needs to be bled a couple more times, but I've taken it off the road for a while, which is actually motivating me to fix it sooner rather than later.
The front end is loose, VERY loose, so I'm going for a full refresh there.
In the meanwhile, there's this thing to scratch the Jeep itch:
(Pictured: Babe on the right, and a '98 "Upcountry" that belongs to my Friend's (Beasley's met him a couple times) Dad.
It blew out a brake line, so we hauled it over here from Chapel Hell and put a new Stainless brake line kit on it from inline tube. Having installed two of their kits now, I'm pretty happy with the quality, fit, and finish. Is every bend perfect? No, but they're plenty close enough and the fittings are good quality.
At some unspecified future date, it's going to need new springs and shocks as the entire suspension is dragging the ground at this point.
