I'm starting to work on the frame on my build. I have the axles under it and am planning on installing at least the fuel and brake lines while the tub is off.
If you had your choice, how much more would you install before putting the tub back on? Complete the whole driveline and engine install? Where would you stop?
 
Heck ya it would not be a question for me the entire Jeep would be together before I set the painted body on it :chug: Go for it
 
I'd do as much as I could before the body is in the way.
 
How far would I go? Time. It all depends on how much time you have on your hands. I wish I didn't have to work to pay for the things I want to do to my jeep. I never seem to have any free time.
How many miles on the engine? How's the drivetrain? It's nice to get those things done but it's also nice to get the jeep back on the trails to enjoy it.



Sorry, I guess I threw out more questions than answers.:o
 
Look at it this way....Most anything done after the tub is on will be about 4 times harder to do than tubless.
Go as far as you can, why not?
 
When I put my new frame on it was easy to put on as much as you can before the body. I already had the glass body on the Jeep so the body had the seats and everything in it when I sat it on the new frame. It took me and my little girl about a week to do it and that was 11 years ago.:D
