Jeep Wrangler Yj Advance Adapters Atlas
Our Advance Adapters Atlas transfer case came with a 3.8:1 Low range. It also comes with a bolt circle that allows it to be installed at less of an angle for flat skidplates. After we swung it up, we found some massaging of the floorboards was needed for clearance.

Jeep Wrangler Yj Salvage Doors
We found a pair of half-doors on a salvage YJ. The door hinges and latches need to be adjusted BEFORE PAINTING to get the doors to fit. With the door in the hinges, you can see how much we needed to adjust it to get it to line up in the back.
