Nice build man! I have an opportunity to get a Gen1 2010 QX56 with 80K miles for $13K.
how much of the suspension mods and bumpers are also applicable to gen1 QX56?
with two modifications:
1. the cable was routed and tied to the bottom of the vehicle instead of tracing along the top of the axle
2. the cable ends for the WJ driver side and KJ passenger side at the tensioner were not the same length, so I used a large crimping tool and cable sleeves

On my XJ -> ZJ disc swap, the ZJ driver side ebrake cable was swapped. However, the ZJ passenger cable was not long enough. I purchased a liberty passenger cable per the advice of cherokeeforum. It had the correct length but not the correct crimp position at the lever end.
Let me know what...

Your stated requirements so far are:
Quality
Hold a tire
Hold jerry cans
What else?
The garvin supports jerry cans
The AJ rear tire carrier has jerry cans

Great pictures man. What is the odometer reading these days?
I'm still on the fence of going 33x10.5 + 4.10s (common) or 31s + 3.73s (not common and may have to pay for regearing).
I really wish the duratracs came in 33x10.5 so I didn't have to get the KM2s or AT KOs
Just edited to include the vehicle. 1999 Jeep Cherokee 4door 4WD with D30/D35 (F/R) axles with 3.07 gearing and the AX-15 manual trans
Are you sure you guys needed that bit of info?

Going to post my dream paper build to get it out of my head.
Theme = Expedition/Reliability/Right_the_first_time/Daily Driver
Please provide cost saving suggestions, hahaha.

which rack is that? jcr? Excellent work 11C. Your build has inspired several aspects of my "paper" build thus far.
What is your opinion on 3.73 vs 4.10 gearing for a DD/camping XJ with the 4.0L, AX-15, and 31s?
