Mate rebonded is going to be the cheapest way to go hands down.

Just dropped a bunch of coin on these super long swanky red lines - looks like the JK's got veins - and your saying hide them and put them in a much more logical location??? Good idea will see if they can do it

If it's a big job I will just get them relocated to the inside of the frame. Need to get it back to the workshop now....

Oh and swaybar endlinks won't be a problem eitherway anyway, need to get drop brackets because on droop the right side tire is pressed against the link which has bent it....

Cheers,
B.

Dude its a Jeep not a muscle...

Inside of the frame would be a good compromise too.

Talking of high prices just had my battery replaced under warranty as it started to spew acid out. I'm sure the Foreman said that the Mopar one was $900 i didn't question him as i was shell shocked and quite relieved i wasn't paying for it. On the subject of Mcjk brakelines this is how they should have been to start with. Probably cost a bit to do if you had to get someone to do it for you.
