WY, wonder if you could get a really good shot of that jack mount you have, got my jack mounted on my hod but doesnt look right just being bolted too it,lol. Thanks.
Sure its just a simple thing made from 3 styrene scraps and 4 1.5mm screws and nuts. Could also use brass etc. I bolted the jack rack to the hood first and then slipped the jack down onto the bolts after drilling the holes in the jack

this is an awesome :jeepy: but correct me if im wrong.
i dont think that chassis is a diaz chassis,i believe that is rpp hobby's out back series chassis for the yj,i think corey was the one who designed it. want to get one for my build but i will not spend a $194 dollars for a chassis.
overal you got a sweet :jeepy: on your hands :nice:
If you read the first post carefully you'll see why it states the word Diaz, I know this is not a Diaz chassis this was purchased after I cancelled a Diaz build I had started because this looked a little better and was already finished nicely, This chassis came from WC Machine in MA directly but I think it is the same one now sold through Rpp as the Outback series. I actually paid $215.00 before it went on sale at Rpp and I was happy to get it, heck I would have paid twice that just for the time savings and what I would have had to do to make my Diaz chassis look like this.

When you have Rock Crushers on your jeep did the front tires rub leaf springs when steering ?
I am going to put rc4wd yota axles with Rok Loxs under my build and I am very worried about rubbing front tires .

There is not a problem with the body I can cut it , I am just afraid of front tires . Proline Flat Irons (narrower and smaller than Rok Loxs) almost rub with my setup :

I will play a game and order Rok Loxs and see if they rub leafs :laugh:

I never noticed any rubbing, it depends a lot on the type and offset of the wheels.

Here is a few updates, I have been more into running my Rally cars lately but have still been working on my Jeep, I just recently added the red RC4wd leaf springs and King Kong Hook, from the RPP outback series: scale lights, light brackets, rear tire carrier and rear bumper, and a few little details like the RC4wd front hubs. Still a lot more details to add.
